Lots of pics here. The before and after of this piece very dramatic. We had to take this piece completely apart, hand carve some moldings, make the missing pieces and parts etc then start the restoration process. Thank you Kim for trusting us with this family treasure.

This is a rescue. We stripped it back to raw and refinished it. Circa 1950 it is in amazingly good shape and only needed minor repairs and the removal of at least 7 coats of paint in 5 different colors. We replaced the wooden k***s because they are too hard to strip. Also one drawer guide was missing and we made a new one. All drawers work very well. It has some dents and dings like all of us that are almost 70. Now this piece is for sale. 36” wide, 36” tall and 16” deep. 9 drawers. Lots of storage in a small space ready to go to its forever home. PM me if you are interested.

This very old high chair was brought to us in pieces. Again we were trusted with a family heirloom. Sometimes it’s just not about the money….

Here it is…reworking our greenhouse. This side was an experiment. She likes it so we will continue with the front.

Before and after….thanks Jason for trusting us with your treasure. This little horse was gifted to the owner on his first Christmas. Now he has a new grandbaby……so it had to get a rework.

***ALL ADOPTED/RECLAIMED BY OWNER***
It’s an Aussie posse! 😍 Tator Tot, Blue Moon and Red are a guy gang of well-mannered and social group of young pups! They range in age from 1-3 years old. Like all Aussie’s, they’re high energy, treat motivated and super snuggly. 🥰 Red is the most outgoing of the bunch, he sits for treats and is a very good dog; Tater Tot is a little more shy and Blue Moon is just here for the party! 🩵 They all came in separately so you can adopt one, you can adopt in pairs or the whole trio if you’re an Aussie connoisseur. 🤩 Please note we have no known history of livestock abilities. Aussie’s are notorious for their need of a job to keep them occupied and out of trouble, they have a natural instinct to herd, whether it be kids or animals! We see so many Aussie and Heeler types relinquished because of their “nipping at heels” when it is simply bred into them and lack of education on the breed(s) resorts to them not being a great fit for every family. Each dog has a life saving adoption fee of $70. This fee covers their initial vaccines and treatment, rabies vaccine, wellness exam, neuter and heartworm antigen test. We’re open for adoptions 10-4, Monday-Saturday. Please visit our website at www.ardmoreanimalshelter.com to fill out an application or stop by 321 Carol Brown Blvd. for a meet and greet!
