Found this little beauty at the flea market. It was in rough shape but it had a great shape.....beautiful lines and carvings. The olive green paint job with a streaky stain wiped haphazardly over it was in need of a serious make over.
Some of the lower drawers were missing trim. I yanked off the remaining trim only to find the missing trim in one of the drawers minutes later....ugh! Not happy and big lesson learned! I went ahead and filled the gaps left by the yanked off trim with Quik Wood, love this stuff, and sanded it smooth.
Sanded, primed and painted in fresh, light colors....
