LINING FURNITURE - wallpaper, fabric, or paint
Sometimes it can be just as fun to redo and enjoy the inside of your furniture project just as much as the outside. This is a compilation of some of my favorite interiors I have done.
FIXING SPLIT WOOD PANEL - white dresser with india knobs
I felt compelled to save this dresser
when I came across it at a yard sale.
The lady who owned it had bought it
to refinish and was told the split side
panel was an easy fix. Once she got it
home she realized this was NOT A
SIMPLE FIX.
The two panels had to be leveled and lined up, glue
applied, and clamped together.
Inside I used a couple of broken metal hinges to stabilize the
fix. The hinges are not the solution to holding the
panels together, but they will hold everything in place while
the glue sets.
Once everything was fixed she got painted in a creamy white
ASCP, and new India bone knobs added. I found the six of
them at my local HomeSense. The plates you see behind the
knobs are antique metal pieces also painted in the same
creamy white ASCP then wet distressed.

Everything was lightly edged distressed and the three
drawers were lined with a floral black and white wallpaper.
