The Big Red Barn
For those of you who loved the play kitchen, here is my next find from the same thrift store which is proving to be very good for me! I found this old barn just sitting amongst a bunch of toys. It was mostly covered up and drowning in dust in addition to having sharp nails sticking out. The barn also had a hole in the roof and sharpi marker on the side. It was $10. I brough it home, wiped it down, primed it and patched it up. Then I gave it a new paint job. I also spent $3 adding the little picket fence after pulling out those nails. It at some time had the same wall that you see on the other side but somehow it had come out so I needed to put something there. Please excuse the wet paint shine on some places. I was impatient to take pictures!
Now it is a bright and family barn for any kid's room. I am hoping to sell it to some horse lovers on craigslist this week in order to make some extra money for the holidays. Wish me luck and please tell me what you think!
