New Name…New Website

Something Old, Something New has changed its name and has a website. 

Our new name is:   Upcycled Garden and

this is our new website address:       http://www.upcycledgarden.com

We are also on Facebook and can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/UpcycledGardenAz 

We have moved from Utah to Florence, AZ and are loving the warm winter here.  This winter was different as we never had to wear coats and only turned on the furnace for three weeks in January. 

We have a new website that I am excited to announce.  Our youngest daughter, Brook and us have started Upcycled Garden and are having the best adventure ever.  We still refurbish (Upcycle) furniture but have added “Ever-Blooming” flowers  band saw jewelry boxes.

These whimsical and fun flowers are created from unwanted and unloved glassware. Each flower is a work of art that can be displayed indoors on a easel or outdoor on a copper pole (which is included on all outdoor flowers).

 Hand cut by our craft masters, these jewel boxes are uniquely designed and no two are alike. Featuring hand flocked drawer lining and high gloss finishes these make wonderful additions to any jewelry collection.

Bringing new life to old outdated desks and dressers, our craft masters take the time to repair each item to perfect working order as well as giving it a new look. These desks and dressers are a wonderful addition to any home.

Please visit our new website and take a “look-see” of some the products we have in stock.  You can also visit our new blog by clicking on the “blog icon” on our home page.  We are excited to have you visit and hope you will return to see the new items.

My Valentine Twin Headboard Bench

This was a fun bench to put together and would make a great addition to any girl’s room.  The color, My Valentine, is so delicate and soothing.

The spindles and curves just add to this bench…

along with the chunky legs and rounded toppers.

Who would not just love to have this bench at their home.  This bench is painted in an interior/exterior paint so could actually fit on your patio or front porch.

My Valentine Queen Headboard Bench…

 

SOLD!!!

Oh, man!!! I wish that this bench had been on my front porch a long time ago instead of as I am getting ready to move.  Maybe in my next place, he will make one for me just like this one.  It is extremely heavy as it is part pine (headboard) and solid oak (arm pieces).

The arches and curves on the back are so delicate and feminine.  This color is called My Valentine and is a mix of dark pink and red and it an interior/exterior paint.  LOVE, LOVE this color. This color is so soft and soothing.

Notice the big chunky legs and the details on the back and sides.

There is nothing that I don’t love about this bench.  It sure will make a great piece of furniture in someone’s home or front porch.

Green Dresser/Vanity

SOLD

This piece of furniture was disgusting with its broken tar lined drawers and it stunk.  Some one must have dumped a couple bottles of perfume in the one drawer and we do not know what the purpose of the tar was.

With his handy dovetail tool, Dick made new drawers and now this is one desirable, functioning piece of furniture. 

I love this new color, Eden, and thought it really made the dresser pop with the handles in the oil rubbed bronze.  We, at first, thought this piece was a desk, but then decided that it was a dresser/vanity.  We went to DI and found a mirror, painted it and wow….what a beauty this became.

This dresser/vanity has found a new home at Hill Air Force Base and was picked up today. It is going to be in the room of one of the cutest little girls on base.

Mom & Dad’s Bench

Kelly gave Dick a pair of headboards that she purchased in Idaho, but decided she did not want them and knew he would come up with a plan for them.  We wanted to make Mom and Dad a bench for Christmas, but I wanted it to have spindles.  Waaa Laaa, this was the perfect set to make the bench.  He cut the legs down on one of them for the arms and they were perfect.

Mom is in love with red…..so we went to Home Depot and got Cranberry to paint the bench.  This was the perfect color for this cute little bench.

We glazed the bench in black and it turned out just exactly like I wanted it to.    I love this little bench.

We took the bench and spent Christmas with them.  Here the bench is at it’s new home where it will receive lots of love.  It sits perfectly under the window and you can see the most beautiful sunsets to the west.

Another beautiful bench….

What could be made of wood, the color red, black glaze and made with lots love????

You are right………another bench!!!!

We are anxious to deliver this special order bench and know that its new home will give it great love.

Remember when….

Remember when we found this end table at DI?  Well it has gone from this…

to this brown….

and now to this black…and it resides in Layton now.
