There are two types of people in the world. There are people like me, who live the granny lifestyle and pull out the old timey board games on the regs (because I’m hip like that.) Then there are people like my 65-year-old dad, who only rock Candy Crush and Wii everything. Either way, gaming is a way of life. And if you’re like my dad (minus the age maybe), make use of those untouched board games by repurposing them in ways you never imagine. If you’re like me, it’s about time we paid tribute…

old board games as wall art

Vintage doll size hutch is handmade and crudely painted not to mention dusty but is also really sweet and makes a fun display piece with other vintage goodies. It is 16 inches tall 10 inches wide a and about 5 inches deep Made of solid wood, about c. 1970 or early 1980 is my best guess.

This is great little bingo game and looks to be complete and barely played with. The box is taped, but bright. Wooden markers cardboard game boards instructions included edition number 4024K c. 1937 I have more vintage games available and am always happy to combine for shipping.

This is a toy kitchen hutch made by Wolverine, c. 1950s, I believe. it has been painted black and is missing the doors, the draw is present but bent, but it is is still holding together pretty well. My kids have had this and played with it for at least 10 years. It measures 20 inches tall, 17 inches wide and 7 inches deep. I have a toy stove available as well. This would be a great store display piece.

Nice old Chinese Checkers board double sided by Pixie Games in St. Louis, MO c. 1950s made in USA Plenty of dents and dings, scratches and love, all normal for the age. Great for wall art or to play! Includes a partial set of orginal marbles and a couple of original checkers. Measures just under 12.75 inches in diameter.

This is a handmade Chinese Checkers board made from a piece of formica covered countertop. It is a beige marble color with the holes painted various colors. Really cute and clever, especially for covering an old table top that is not in good shape? It measures 15 inches square.

This pretty little print is framed in a simple wooden frame under glass and features Thumper from Bambi. This is an authorized product c. from Walt Disney Productions. from the 1940s or 50s. the frame measures 12 by 10 inches.

A charming kitchen toy The Little Lady toy oven has electric cord and has lights across the top, but I have not tested this. I cleaned it up gently, but it still has all the dings, rust and scratches of a very loved plaything. The piece measures 15 by 7.5 by 14 inches tall. It has a small grate in the oven. My kids have had this and played with it for at least 10 years.

Classic granny square afghan is crocheted in bright colors with red frames No doubt made from acrylic yarn it is in good condition with just one hole between squares easy to mend. Measures about 82 by 82 inches from point to point Blocks are 6.5 inches square.

This massive rendition of Degas Dancer with a Bouquet of Flowers, originally created in 1878 seems to be a lithograph from the mid 1950s framed in a wooden frame under glass with a large ivory matte which has been signed in pencil and also wrongly identified as Le Danseur an Bouquet, which is a similar painting but different. The frame has a gold-metallic paint with a glittery surface: actual gritty, glitter around the edges. There is some obvious wear to the frame nicks and scratches…
