parts is parts


i like to have lots of parts in stock.....and hear what kind of projects the buyers have in mind...
..these windows look like a good start for a cupboard door.....or a big wall accent. maybe with tin behind....

we have lots of windows.and i love the arched ones and the criss cross ones......we also try and have lots of shutters, doors bits of old woodwork, old dresser parts.old headboards, porch posts,spindles,, old fence,,,,

in new we have ....

wood appliques, we use them on our cupboards a lot..

glass knobs, in clear, green and even some pink....

brass hardware, true antique reproductions

iron bin pulls, ,

iron hooks,we have tons of these...big and small lots of fancy ones, fleur de lis , bugs etc

iron brackets and corners, big selection

in tin we have old and new...

lately i have heard lots of headboard ideas....and kitchen ideas....the tin is so versatile!!!! we use tin for birdhouse roofs too....

.i like the new tin when it starts to look old and rusty.............but if you want it nice and new looking put a primer coat on first....then it shouldnt rust..........and rust is always an issue with the tin.....or if it has rusted to a point perfect for you...just put a sealer on it....

if you made something neat from our parts, send me a picture!! i like to put them on the pin up page of our website... http://www.greenoakantiques.com/
