Reno+repair is the name of the games we are playing these days..My pantry door needed to have the glass replaced or be gone all together..I showed my contracter/slash handyman Dane some photos of pie safes telling him how much I love pressed tin and perhaps we can replace the glass with reproduction tin tiles or something similair...The super-man of reno's made a phone call and came up with 25 tiles from a 100 year old farmhouse!!! I was astounded!!
Dane spent a saturday crafting my new pantry door using the old door and some of the pressed tin! I am in LOVE with it! I added a repo glass nob although I am on the hunt for an original..It really stands out in the kitchen and when we get the counter tops done I will post more photos! I am hoping to have some sort of pressed tin for the backsplash as well.
The following Monday as a huge surpise Dane framed up the best of the tiles for me! It brought tears to my eyes! He is such a kind man and talented handyman! We hace 21 more tiles for projects who knows what we may come up with next!!!!
Thank you for stopping by my blog and commenting- I'm so glad you did or I never would have found your fun site!
ReplyDeleteI have to say your little blonde boy is about the cutest thing I've ever seen- especially in that bear hat! OMG- that's amazing. The boy has some chunky cheeks and they look delicious!
This is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteGreat door! I adore pie safes and long for the day I have one in my possession! I would love to tile my kitchen ceilings one day, too. Great project!
