ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful piece!!! Those curves are great! Love the grey that you did too! I've been dying to do grey and this makes me want to even more!
ReplyDeleteYou find such awesome pieces! I am jealous. Our thrift stores don't have much AND they're expensive! Anyway, it turned out beautiful!
ReplyDeleteit turned out very pretty. Will it be finding a place in your home or do you sell your pieces?
ReplyDeleteGreat job Lisa! I am so impressed with your painting skills and so impressed with the furniture you find!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.

Another great piece. Isn't it amazing what a little paint can do? And you always pick the perfect color for the piece. See you in a bit.

This is such a pretty piece :-)
ReplyDeleteI love it! The white pulls looks so pretty, too!
ReplyDeleteLove It Lisa!!!! Fab job! Now if only I could find pieces like that at our thrift stores!!!
ReplyDeleteWah! This makes me sad! A few years ago, my grandmother gave me a sideboard like this. She couldn't understand why anyone would want it since it was old, but I could invision it painted. However, the leg broken off when trying to move it from the truck and eventually my family talked me into letting them take it to the dump.
ReplyDeleteNow that we are seeing these online, we wish now that we had glued the leg back on and painted it.
Yours really is pretty!
I really like the handles. I think the handles of a desk or sideboard is what really makes the furniture stand out artistically. A handle isn't just something that helps you open the cabinet. A handle is part of the art of the object.
