Just Finished
When I bought this French nightstand
I have it say it was in sad shape.
I cleaned, taped, painted, sanded, stained, hammered, & screwed!
First I painted it white then sanded & then stained to get the look I was going for.
The top drawer runners weren't in the best shaped but after a little thought
&
planning I fixed it so now it will work just fine.
The bottom draw runners were past fixing so I opted to just not try
&
do something a little different.

I applied some toile wallpaper.
The front of the tabletop was curved & scalloped
so
I took a piece of blue chalk
&
rubbed it around the edge.
That worked GREAT!!!
It's getting close to done ...
I didn't touch the Gold painted trim ... I love the old Patina look!
I also lined the top drawer with the toile paper.
Then we ( my sweet hubby) cut a new floor bottom for the place the bottom drawer would have been.
I then papered it too!
I went to work on the legs next.
I Love the Legs!
Just a touch of black & a little stain.
+++ Next +++
Time to get the sewing machine out
&
make a small curtain.
I used a remnant of french toile printed fabric.
Finished and on it's way to Arkansas.
