Hello friend, welcome!
Do you love the vintage charm of chippy pieces? Whether that's furniture or
decor, I think you'll agree there's just something about a chippy white
vintage object that is so appealing! ❤
When I found a couple of furniture pieces discarded at the curb, I snatched
them up, cut them down and turned them into the most charming spindle tree for
Christmas!
I came up with a very quick and easy way to turn stained items into chippy
pieces. It takes very little effort to do this and I think you're going to
love it! You can find out
how to MAKE chippy white spindles here.
What else can you make with chippy spindles?
I'm so glad you asked! Here are some other ways to decorate with chippy
spindles:
- turn chair spindles into chippy candlesticks
- use chippy spindle pieces as feet for a wood riser
- make simple ornaments using these screw eye pins (see how I hung them from my blue and white French farmhouse tree and my red and white Santa's Workshop tree - scroll to the end of the post)
- pile them in a wood dough bowl
- stand them in a vintage olive bucket or stoneware crock
My very favorite chippy spindle project was by far this cute tree! I hope
you're inspired to make one this year! To see the full tutorial, please visit

Girl, that is fantastic. I need to do this but keep using my spindles for other things.
ReplyDeleteThanks Cindy! You need to make one for your farmhouse porch! What do you use your spindles for?
