my teal piano


I ALMOST bought this teal piano from the Habit to Humanity Re-store in Newmarket. When I walked into the store, my heart just dropped at the sight of it. As soon as I saw it, I realized that I'd always wanted, deep down inside, a teal piano. I could just picture it in the living room of my new house, the only pop of colour against muted colour scheme...it would contrast my espresso hardwood floors and white walls so perfectly! I could just picture my future kiddies learning to play on it. How fantastic would that have been! But the piano-repairman who came to look at it before I made the splurge said he wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot pole. It's all rusted inside and would take $3000+ to fix it to make it play-able. So sad! But hey, now that I know what I want, I will keep my eye out for another piano and just paint it teal myself!!

Well at least now you know that you can find a piano and just paint it! This piano might have been a good prop for events however if you could find a cost efficient way to ship it. Time to buy a pick up perhaps?
