BefOAR and AFTer!
Jul 8, 2010
Michael has my dream job of owning a bed and breakfast in central PA. I actually didn't know that was my dream job until I saw it on his blog, Inspired by Charm, but gosh dang, doesn't it sound wonderful?
He had a blank wall to liven up in the "Sunset Room," so he found these oars on Ebay for about $5 each. He weathered and painted them and weathered them again until they ended up with this perfectly aged finish. Notice how the colors start darker and end in light blue, mimicking a sunset? Lovely! Thanks Michael!

Hi Lindsey-
I want these. I love how he stained them. Gotta click over to see more. Thanks for the link.

Worth WAY more than $5 now! Man, I'd LOVE to have 1 or 2 of those ...
The colors!!!! I wasn't expecting them at all, but they are awesome!!!!!!!!
Love the post title, by the way.

I'd visit the B&B just to see the oars! Well done!
OMG, too cute! And I just passed on some oars at a yard sale. Big mistake!
That is just too darn fun! We're all going to be bidding on oars at eBay! LOL
