Before. This piece was already painted white but it was dinged up, dirty, and yellowing in places. It needed a little love.
After. I decided this piece was to remain white, (it whispered it to me). There she is after a fresh coat of paint standing proud!
A true antique. I can't help myself but to wonder what it's story is. Where it's been, how many refections it's seen, and who's dirty drawers it's carried. haha.
I love this giant scalloped framed mirror. Gorgeous.
This piece is sold.
This is stunning! What a beautiful piece of furniture. I think you were spot on with the white :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a very stately piece, you've restored it's pride! I like to ponder on the history of furniture too........

ReplyDeleteHi Julie, I was sure I left you a comment earlier but I can't see it...anyway sorry if you got it twice! Your furniture makeovers are awesome, thanks so much for letting me find you by commenting on my blog :) I wanted to tell you that I love your blog design but I notice that 'refinish' is spelt wrong in your header. Hopefully an easy fix!
