This is the last of the pieces I picked up about a month ago. I absolutely adore everything this beauty has going on. It needed some work though. Parts fell off, parts were falling off, and parts were a little wonky (does anyone else use that word??). Oh, and it was full of nasty things like mouse droppings and spider eggs! My diligent and oh-so-patient hubby hauled it to our shop for me and fixed it up and I gave it a good cleaning. Now it's better than it ever was before!
My client claimed it and said it was for her son so it received a modern update. I think "he's" pretty sharp now!

I actually like this stage. I love seeing a piece at its ugliest because it makes me appreciate the after that much more. :)
I actually really like these simple knobs and I figured no boy wanted anything "cute"! ;)
It's just loaded with details and this is my favorite one!
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend! It's another softball tourny for us!
