I spied this little piece at an auction last Saturday. It is the ideal size piece that I am looking for in furniture. It had been mostly "stripped", years ago. It sat around parched and naked for decades. I thought it was hidden well behind the sad abuse, and maybe no one else at the auction would see it's potential. I should have known better.
I obviously did bring it home, but not for a song. But it proved such an easy "redo" that I am so glad I got it.
The drawers still had some paint on them. The wood did not look especially beautiful that was showing, so I opted to paint the whole thing. Two coats of white chalk paint and a little distressing. It was such a blessing to have no hidden problems.
Even finding new (old) hardware proved easy. I had it in my stash already.
This is the kind of easy project I love to do.
I'm naming her "Rosaline".
