Lots of lines and head scratching later, and we are getting there.
Once the painting was done it was time to distress it and I must admit I felt a small pang of guilt defacing my county's flag, but it had to be done.
Two coats of polyurethane for the top, wax for the legs and Bob's your uncle! It's safe and sound in my son's bedroom...for now ...but I'm going to try and sell it, if he'll let me!
and no, his room isn't normally that tidy........
Hey well done. looks fab. I just bought another Oak drawers to do another one as have loads of people ask me for one.
ReplyDeleteI love that your son has already stuck some stickers on it!
