As I've said in the past, "I love old shoes" I fond a pair of sweet baby shoes on Etsy and ordered them, when they came there were three shoes in the box, the note inside said she didn't know where the other shoe was and she hoped I could find some use for it. Well, this is what I finally did with it.
I think this would be so cute hung on the door of a small child's room, change out the flowers and it can be used all year long. A battery operated candle could hung on the frame or stuck in the shoe its self.
And this dresser is a real beauty...it is very old and was very dingy and dull, sorry, I could not find any before pictures but I'm sure you've seen old dressers before. well this is the updated model.
We did a few cosmetic fixes but not a whole lot, there was no musty smell and that is a plus, her drawers were in good shape, mostly, just needed a little fixing, that job fell to Tim. He is so good at that. The pic above is a close up of the design that is on the front of the two lover drawers, part of the design in the middle was missing so I just took the rest off and the imprint still shows ...love that
I found new drawer pulls and before adding them we filled the old holes and drilled new ones that were closer together. This made opening of the lower drawers so much easier.
This project is a wrap and tomorrow will be in the shop. maybe she will be a Christmas gift for some lucky lady. Just a side note, I think this would make a super cute buffet in the dining room, what do you think?
That's all for now...
From my porch to yours...
Have a Blessed week...
