Paint It Up and Pass It On

Paint It Up and Pass It On "Where old is made new" Hi, my name is Linda. I am married to a wonderful guy who is my best friend and biggest supporter. Follow and Like our pages for updates.

He is always there to help in the workshop and has even finished some amazing furniture pieces in the past. Together we have four children and one grandson. Paint It Up and Pass It On began in 2011 when I inherited some dining chairs that were in our family home growing up. The cost of having them re-finished was expensive so I began to explore the idea of re-purposing them with paint. I was hooke

d and still had some paint left over so started the hunt for more pieces to paint. We are always on the hunt for unique items that need a makeover. Our free time is spent strolling through thrift stores, garage sales and estate sales. We use quality paint made specifically for re-purposing (not home made or regular latex paint)

In 2016 we relocated to the Shuswap area. We purchased a 1920s house and live there with our two rescue cats Snowshoe and Sami. We had hoped to build a studio here this year but had some construction delays so it is still a work in progress. We are also a retailer for PIY Paint Products.

Items for sale are shown in the "Looking For A New Home and For Sale" albums. Once they are sold they will be moved to the "Passed On" Album.

I have painted a lot of things before but never a vintage card table. I love these tables - the pictures in the centre are so cool. Unfortunately many of them are wobbly and top is in bad shape. Maybe that is why this one ended up being thrown away. Two coats of paint and a waxing and voila - brought back to life. These tables make great wall pictures! This one would look great hanging in a cabin.

Today we are feeling blessed as the Thanksgiving weekend approaches. Our store RE-Market etc. opens today and the past few weeks we have had family and friends visit, call and send messages (and get a sneak peek!) We are thankful for all of the support and encouragement we have received the past 5 weeks as we get ready to open. We could not have done this without you. Wishing you all a Blessed Thanksgiving - remember to count your blessings, big or small.
Jaimie and Linda
