Spray Painting Doll's Prams and Wicker Chairs is really the only way to go. Quicker, easier, and you achieve a professional finish, especially when you use oil base enamel.

Antique Child's High Chair

23/7/2014

Here's a fully restored Antique Child's High Chair made from English Oak. Multi purpose too.

Not many children will get the opportunity to sit in one of these, to eat their breakfast of soft boiled eggs and vegemite soldiers. No...
Today the modern high chair is a cold structure made from plastic and metal. No charm, and no character.

Antique Heywood Bros/Wakefield Wicker Rocker
This was a gem to restore. An early 1900's Heywood Brothers/Wakefield Wicker Rocker.

A rare find in this part of the world, Australia.
Needless to say after extensive wicker repairs and a fresh coat of paint, similar to the original colour, she's now ready to be enjoyed for another 100 years plus.

Wicker Doll's Pram Hood for repair.

Re building a wicker doll's pram hood.

This wicker doll's pram hood needed a little tlc, so I thought. But now I'm not so sure.

What started out as a reasonable repair, has now ended up as a complete rebuild.

The old wicker was very brittle and forever breaking, so I decided to 'bite the bullet' and replace all the wicker. I feel much better now.

Eclipse Cane Babies Pram
It's becoming rare these days but I still restore the odd Cane Babies Pram. The full size Eclipse model. A labour of love I gotta say, but I get immense pleasure in restoring these. There's a sentimental attachment which is immeasurable.
