It still makes me smile to think about her enthusiasm for what many people considered to be plain old junk, and I thank my lucky stars she passed that love of old stuff...

Written by wpo1408 on
by Daniel McGonagle If you collect antique furniture and have run into difficult economic times, perhaps it is time to look at that hobby as an investment that you can now cash in on. Shifting gears from hobby to income takes some real willpower but it can be done.

The resulting mixture is spread or, once hardened, carved into and engraved with a particular design. Finally, it is heavily polished to give the appearance of marble. The name “scagliola” derives from the Italian word scaglia, meaning “chips,” and though it ... Read Full Story
