Roadside Rescue Baker's Rack

Good morning!  Hope you had a great weekend!!  We just got back from a quick weekend trip to Mackinaw City with my sister and her family.  We had beautiful weather for camping!  The best part of our campsite was that we were basically right on the beach.  We had a beautiful view of the lake.  We decided to visit Mackinaw Island on Saturday, which is always so much fun.  My son absolutely loved riding bikes on the island.  Since there are no cars on the island, he was able to ride on the roads.  I think that was his best part to not worry about cars!!!  We only had to worry about the horse and carriages.  The boat ride over to the island is always so much fun too....but this time we took the ferry that went under the impressive Mackinaw Bridge.  I have to say that was really neat.  It was such a fun weekend.....oh I love summer!!!!

Anyways, on to my project that I wanted to share with you today.  I recently found this baker's rack on the side of the road waiting for the garbage men to pick it up.  It had quite a bit of rust on it.  Here she is as I rescued her.

I gave her a good cleaning and scraped the rust off.  I then sprayed a coat of primer on it and followed up with three or four coats of cherry red spray paint.  I went through a couple cans of spray paint to cover it up.  It now sits on my deck holding a few plants, although, I think it could be used as a buffet station when we host a barbecue.  Here she is after her make-over.

If your reading this...ThAnKs!!!
Make it a great day!
