I really think we are sisters from another mother LOL...I have an old metal teapot just like the one you have and an old candle holder very similar to the one you chose to put underneath the teapot. I got them at a thrift store and they have been sitting in a box on the deck waiting for me to glue them together. Thank you LOL

I absolutely LOVED the first project. Your tutorial on chippy paint with coarse salt made it look super easy. I loved the look of that cabinet door when you were finished with it. When you secured the pot lids without their knobs to the wood they reminded me of the old school bells. I really wondered what your vision was. Then viola! It was amazing. I can totally picture that in my kitchen. Super cute and a great idea. ❤

I love everything! You make it all look so easy. My mom passed in14 and she always had primitive decor .She would have loved your projects also. I did end up with some of her stuff. There's a corner cabinet I want to finish and I will prbly do it in white chalk paint but I also like the black chippy paint. It's not real wood but it's worth trying to fix it up. I'm not sure what I'll do with it yet but you have inspired me to finally do something with it. Thanks for sharing! ❤

You could've just used a longer screw of the same diameter and come in from the back of the wood both securing the lid to the wood and the handle into the pot.

Actually I have several barns full! I have a major sickness! Hahaha
