This chest was in terrible shape
I chose to work with it's rustic attributes not against them.
The original hardware was tossed in the trash, these
beauties were stolen roadside off a pressboard 70's
long dresser, might I add it was pouring rain at the time.
I highlighted the grain in the plywood by having
black under the red and sanding till it showed thru.
But the very first coat was a white primer, I wanted
many layers to show thru adding to the appearance of age.
I couldn't think of a better way to line the drawers
then with this fun farmhouse tablecloth.
While working on this rustic red chest of drawers I
was reminded of all the neat farm items we saw while
strolling thru many of Florida's fleamarkets while on holiday.
Here are just some of the farm items that caught my eye.
I wish I could have taken this yoke transformed into
a mirror home on the plane. George just looks at
me sideways when I say that. Have you seen some
of the things ppl carry on planes?
