Finally!

After hours and hourssss of staring at this computer screen I'm finally (mostly) done. Out of the 44 entries here, I think I just did 37. That includes: finding all of the photos on my computer, uploading them to flickr and THEN updating this blog... Now all I have to do is keep up with this thing.

60's/70's Chest of Drawers

I found this little guy at a local thrift store.

Before:

I wasn't sure what color to paint it so I just used my trusty mint green. The color is actually a little more mint in real life. I kept the original hardware because it's awesome. I left the top the original veneer because it's no fun to mess with.

After:

1970's Mirror

I saw this and instantly knew it could be better. I only had to do one minor repair on one of the "finials".

Before it was just dark brown.

50's Dresser with Mirror

I re-did this for my manager. I also forgot to take a before photo of this too. It was just a plain very light wood color.

Plain Chest of Drawers

I re-did this for the shop I work at. It was a pretty plain, simple, vintage wood chest of drawers. I've never painted anything large yellow before so I decided to try it out.

I think I went a little too crazy with the grey glaze on the bottom 2 drawers.... Oh well..
