You're so Vanity



This little vanity was in pretty rough shape when we brought her home.  People seem to get used to having a piece of furniture around and forget to take care of it.  



What good looking legs!


























 This is what she looks like now.  This pretty vanity has been brought back to life with sanding, glue and paint.  The vanity is solid wood-no particle board here.  The mirror is new; the original as too deteriorated to save.  The side mirrors are hinged to adjust for view!

She is 67 inches tall, 44 inches wide and 18 iches deep.  

$300.00

Getting Organized


I sold this repurposed window today. When I got this solid oak window frame it was in really bad shape.  It had screen stapled to the back...I don't think that it ever held glass as there were no grooves around the edges.  It is the perfect size for a chalk board/bulletin board combination.  A drawer cup holder is a perfect chalk holder.

I understand the new owner is really going to get organized!

Union Jack Dresser


This was a very boring but well made dresser and the perfect size!




Nothing original here...I have seen people painting dressers with the Union Jack all over the internet.

I thought it would be fun to do and it was.

Another Dresser


The previous owner had a cat
that used this dresser as a 
scratching post
A "before" picture



I dragged this little dresser home along with a matching vanity.  I have to remember to take pictures before I start refinishing!  The veneer on this Knechtel dresser was in such poor repair that I decided remove it.  And what do I find.....solid cherry wood drawer front!

I will post pictures as work progresses.
