Swedish Rocking Horse

I bought this rocking horse from Goodwill and to my surprise, the bottom was marked Made In Sweden. These are the after pictures....
The before pictures.....
I gave him a nice sanding, cleaned him up, painted him "pure white" (Martha Stewart), added white and burlap twine....Lovely! I also want to thank you all for your comments on my last post, it was a very hard day for me, but I definitely felt your prayers and for that, I appreciate ALL OF YOU. I love you girls and I have formed some pretty amazing friendships here. THANK YOU! Also, I have opened my Etsy back up with just a few items

  6. Hi Ashley, what a great find, and from Sweden better yet :)
    You really gave it the right Nordic touch when you took and painted it white. I love the little pony rocker so much better white :)

    Thank you for visiting my sea post, I too am working on Nordic style pieces getting ready for the holidays.
    come visit soon and I too will visit you.

    Keep inspiring all things Nordic.

    Blessings
