So.. what should I do with it? ( I cannot and will not paint all the little slats, so if it's getting a treatment, it's only to the outside! I was so scraped up just cleaning it! )November 4, 2010
where the DIY art landed
The knock off art has ended up in the entry.. on my side of the road find ( remember that? ) I just brought it up from the basement. Can't decide if I want to leave it all rough and tumble or paint it up. Thoughts? I may hang the art as well.. I'm just living with it for a while

I recently came across somthing very similiar however they were individual and not a set of four all together. If you check out my blog you will see my file stand as well. Yours looks amazing. Sandy
rough and tumble definately, makes a nice contrast. love the pictures too!
I like it the way it is, especially against the crisp white wall behind it. Love the art.
I love it all as is...the road find, the art placement...so great! Not to mention the fabulous panels in your entry! Gorgeous!
Hi Sarah, It looks amazing as it is! But if were to paint anything then maybe paint the sides white. Let time decide :)
Hmmm tough question. With your abstract DIY art maybe spray painting it a glossy black would work (that way you wouldnt have to paint all the slats) But I also like the rough and tumble although the sides look maybe a bit TOO rough. Not sure I am like the rough in this space but maybe in an office holding paperwork etc. Keep us posted on your final decision.
I kinda like the original look. It's a nice rustic(?) contrast to the painted wainscot. It's such a cool piece!
leave it rough and tumbled...

"KEEP CALM" A Giveaway is Going On!!
looks beautiful. I love the raw look.
I think you should oil it and let it be, the patina is part of it's charm - what a great find!! Your vignette is lovely..
oh my god. i love it. lave it as is!

i think it looks great just as it is, sarah!!! love the whole scene there.
I think it looks great the way it is! I love the rustic cabinet (not really sure what to call it:) against the elegant panelling detail of your walls- it creates a really nice tension between the two. Your artwork looks great!!
just linked you to my blog- love this blog

Definitely leave it as is. It's beautiful, the contrast is great, and what a story!
I'm liking it! Maybe leave the character of it. If you add some new pieces on top it can balance it all out. I love the art by the way!
First of all, love your "side of the road" find. It's hard to tell what shape it is in from this picture, but I say leave it!
As for your DIY art which I love, I think they would love amazing hung inside the wainscotting!
Leave it, pretty please, leave it...it looks perfect the way it is.
Love it just the way it is, and the artwork is wonderful!
WHat a find!! and the art... perfect. I'd keep it rough and tumble
i love it the way it is! what a cool find.
Perfect as is!
Cheers, Alcira
