By no means do I think that this piece is going to be around for 100 years, but it won't be spending 100 years decaying in some junk yard. I love to take pieces that most people wouldn't look twice at and convert them into pseudo antiques. I know I'm not alone in feeling like this, there are so many more out there than I ever thought. I have recently found a group that feel like I do, and I was surprised to see how young many of them were. They were born in the era of disposable everything, yet they have the soul of yesteryear. I'm not sure how this happens but someone must have influenced them along the way. Maybe a mom, aunt, or friend, and I am so excited to see this. Well, enough chatter, now some before and after pictures and a few redo's
We found this little dresser at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore Store, Tim had to do a lot of reconstructive surgery to get it in shape for me to apply the finishes that make it look like it has been around for quite a while.
Tim built the top and attached it to the base, he also had to tear off the sides and do some rebuilding to the under structure and then he applied tongue and groove panel strips to the sides.
ALMOST FINISHED...
FINALLY DONE....
Soon to be taken to the shop and hopefully sold quickly because I have a stack of furniture that needs some TLC.
Just a little Spring redo for the house, because it's still too cold to do much in the garden...
Well, that's all for this time...
So from my porch to yours...
Have a blessed week.
