LET THE SUN SHINE IN - yellow dresser

I absolutely adore this dresser and loved working on.


It also has beautifully lined drawers.
A link to how I won this Historical French Floral Birds Victorian can be found here.

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO - paisley highboy

Trying to make this one write like an epic story,
as you scroll down the page seeing each photo
 I want it to feel as if you've just turned the page of
 a mystery novel or the next movie scene.

This would be the front cover of our book,
 designed specifically to entice you.



Chapter 1
We first see a glimpse of the past
and feel sympathy and concern.



Chapter 2
Then curiosity starts when we see
a bit of magic in this tale.



Chapter 3
A good story has many ups and downs.




Chapter 4
Dark clouds of days gone by now weave their way in.




Chapter 5
But every good epic has a hero, a warrior,
or just a supporting actress to steal the shiny Oscar.



Chapter 6
The long hard battle begins ....



Chapter 7
Every arsenal used .....



Chapter 8
Defending against evil ....

Chapter 9
with a trusty shield of armour .....

 
Chapter 9
The hero triumphs

 
The Finale
Everyone lives happily ever after

BLACK GLAMOUR - antique dresser

Don't you just feel itchy when you look at it. It was bad ....
 with peeling veneer, sticky surface, and mismatched hardware.

The drawer front veneer was original done in a pattern.
I didn't want to loose this when painting it so I used a clearcoat
to accent it. As seen below.

 A set of silver finished hardware was added.

I protected the beautiful wood surface with layers of clearcoat.
