Wall Shelf with Hooks

A wall shelf with hooks created from a very interesting side of the road find.

There is an antiques/junk dealer on my way to work who puts broken pieces of furniture on the side of the road.


and I am here to pick them up!

This was one of the 2 pieces of a broken table I found.
After cutting off the leg, I used the curved flat piece to create a wall shelf.

The piece has some gorgeous carvings that really popped  after the painting and distressing.



This guy has no idea what he is throwing away!
