WATERFALL HIGHBOY - turquoise and white with numbers

I usually start by looking at a piece of furniture and determine whether it has a masculine or feminine feel. In my opinion most waterfall dressers feel very masculine and great to refinish for boy's rooms.

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

BEFORE                AFTER

This pretty vintage shabby chic white highboy

George bought me a paint sprayer at Canadian Tire

months ago but I couldn't use it till the weather was better.

WEATHER's GOTTEN BETTER!!

I first used a paint sprayer years ago but it wasn't my very own.

It certainly helps with time but I do enjoy brush

 painting, it's my quiet time away from the world.

If you want to see how I line the drawers you can find that here.
