Hi Everyone
Remember my baby dresser that I showed recently?
|
Circa 1969. |
|
Hey, there are toys in here! |
|
Gaaa!! Spider! |
|
This is sad. Water damage to the legs. |
|
Peeling wood. |
|
I glued the peeling part back down and clamped it while it dried. |
After taking care of business then the fun stuff began!
|
In the areas where I planned to distress the paint I spraypainted in silver. I had actually found the silver paint in one of the drawers. Score! |
|
I spray painted the whole thing in glossy black. After the paint dried I sanded the edges and corners. Doing this revealed the silver and also revealed some of the old white in places. Unintended but cool effect nonetheless. I added nickel hardware and voila. |
Now she's fit to come back in the house.
