THIS POOR OLD DRESSER IS FINALLY FINISHED..IT’S TAKEN ME AN AGE OF GRITTY EYED SANDING,PAINTING,PAINTING,PAINTING,MORE SANDING AND MORE PAINTING….PRETTY SURE THE FINAL CLEAR COAT HAS COMPLIMENTARY DOG AND CAT FUR IN IT…MAKES IT EVEN MORE SPECIAL …
FORREST IS GLAD…IT WAS TAKING UP VALUABLE PLAY TIME WITH MUM..PLUS THE PAINT SMELL AND THE DUST WAS REALLY MORE THAN A DOG COULD BEAR…..
POOR OLD THING
MUCH GRITTY EYED SANDING…
STARTED OUTSIDE..UNTIL BAD WEATHER SET IN
LOOKS A LOT HAPPIER NOW
BOUND TO BE CAT AND DOG HAIR IN THE LAST COAT
THANK DOG! FORREST HAS HAD QUITE ENOUGH OF THE DISTRACTION

Oh my!! I think that looks AMAZING!!!! You did an incredible job! My Mom used to refinish antique furniture so I know the time and sweat that goes into it!
Wish you could tell me what a 1944 mahogany china cabinet would be worth nowadays!

It looks great! Much better than my mom’s diy- restorations :o) She used a hot air gun and got a “forest fire design” . But it was impressing to see how a foam extinguisher works :o) Congratulations and respect – your dresser is a masterpiece.
