Two others at the same price. 2 are painted like yours was. I'll be srtipping the painted ones down. What color stain did you use for yours?

It's the chairs that kill me with all the curves and nooks and crannies. I need to rethink refinishing chairs. Have you posted a pic of the salmon dresser? Why do people do that?!Rhan Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16469580427714667535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230858546981279145.post-45193824676628417142011-01-22T13:18:52.600-08:002011-01-22T13:18:52.600-08:00Good grief!

Yes, it's quite a job but I'll love it in the end!Rhan Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16469580427714667535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230858546981279145.post-43300555252988253442011-01-21T14:55:16.819-08:002011-01-21T14:55:16.819-08:00oh you're a busy bee! did you sand that whole ...oh you're a busy bee! did you sand that whole thing by hand?!?! your hard work will pay off, that is going to be 3 very beautiful pieces!staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17606850918069865624noreply@blogger.com
