Here is an old cart we bought at a barn sale,I really only wanted the wheels and handle. He had some pine sides and a plywood bottom,we paid $75 for it. I took it all apart,used some barn wood for the sides and pallet wood for the bottom. I also put a pipe leg on the back ,we are going to set our daughters wedding cake on an old box inside it,I was worried if someone leaned on the back it would flip over so now it s good. As I said the cart was $75 , the barnwood was $2 , and the pallet wood was free. I had about 2 hrs into it for time.

The wagon looks cool, really like the running gear and handle. I see all kinds of seasonal decor and flowers decorating her. This wedding is shaping up to be the type of affair I would not mine attending, good luck and have fun.

Picked this up at a barn sale over the weekend. It's a top to something,can't find any markings . I'm going to clean it up and I think we are going to use it behind the head table at my daughters wedding,set some candles and things on it.

Here is a set of doors I made. The wedding is outside,so we are using these doors for the people and the wedding party to walk thru to kinda simulate walking into the church.

Well guys and gals,we pulled it off , we starting setting up last Saturday , finished fri morning. The weather ended up breaking a couple hrs before the pictures and it was sunny and nice and cool for the whole wedding. Everything went off with out a hitch. It was a great time and they are off to st. Thomas for a week. I will post some pics later on. Got. A ton of comments on the homemade details and the small things we added . Great thing , where we held it the lady that runs the place wanted to buy everything. Some things were not for sale , but a lot of the lights and lace ,things like that she bought so I didn't have to take them down. Another lady is getting married there next week and she also wants some of the things so that's good.
