Cuppa Please?
A while back I picked up a small shelf that was scratched up and was in need of a little TLC. I took it apart and filled the scratches. A bit of paint...

Wow it is looking so pretty x
What a transformation, and it is just perfect for your tea cups. It takes vision to see the potential in things like that. CJin OK
It's beautiful, Meari!
Well, you’ve done a great job on the shelf Meari, it looks totally different now it’s had a face lift. Loving you collection of cups too. They remind me of the bone china cup mum used it give me my coffee in when I was little.
Have a great week

Great finishing job! It is really pretty!
This came out beautiful. Wish I was handy like you are. I'm all thumbs and no patience when it comes to things like this.
Just fabulous!! Love your cups - I was thinking of collecting tea cups for a while (on Ebay) until I saw the price of some of them - they are soooooo pretty tho.
Who would have thought to do that?!! Not me - not to taking it apart then putting it back together - I'd probably just spray paint the whole thing white - lol

What a great save, Meari!! It looks brand new and your teacups are showcased beautifully...
You amaze me with your DIY talents Meari!!
The shelf looks fantastic and it is a gorgeous focal point for your beautiful collection.
You have some gorgeous cups. I have my great grandmothers collection of cups. Looking to add to them everytime I go thrifting.

I swear girl! I am going to get you, your own tv show! I will think up a great name too....LOL.....the shelf is positively gorgeous. I am going to look up the cup, saucer, etc. I told you about. If I can locate it, I will bring it in October to MB so you can carry it home with you. You can wrap the pieces in your clothing to protect them!
Love ya,

How totally frustrating! At least you were able to fix it yourself. On a happier note, I love your tea cups.
