Buffets and Bulldogs

It looks like I took more than just a day off, has it really been a week since my last post?

 Bad bad Tobey.

I have been busy, doing some spring cleaning and trying to work on things in the garage.

Do you find that you buy new pieces and start working on them when you have other stuff

waiting in the garage.

 Sometimes you leave pieces sitting for so long it is hard to get started

on them.

I am going to refrain from buying new pieces and try to work in what I have.

 Its going to be

 hard but I really have enough to keep me busy for while.

I am going to work on the big pieces first and making some room in the garage.

 

I chose this piece to work on this week, isn't it cute

one pane of glass is missing so I am going to do something different for the doors

 

 

 

 

This little silverware drawer had the green felt glued to it

It was a pain to remove, but I got it all off

 

 

I painted this piece a nice light cream colour

I am working on the doors and hunting down some new hardware

As you can see the knobs were wood and I think this piece needs

hardware that really stands out

 

Will post pics when it is all done, going to check out the restore today

and see if I can find some hardware

 

 

I need some help with another piece I picked up

I bought this because it is interesting, but am unsure what to do with it

 

 

 

here is the piece, when you look at it what do you see ?

 

 

I think it must have been used for sewing supplies

I am thinking that is what the metal rods were for , thread?

 

I see either a large jewelry box or a night stand

But I need some help, any suggestions

I think it needs some feet and something on the top

 

What would you do to it?

 

Hope everyone is having a good week

And that spring has finally come to you

 

Happy Picking Happy Painting

 

 

 

 

 

 

And my little sidekick is sneaking into a pic

This is another piece that needs my attention

yes Maggie you want my attention too

 

off for a walk with Maggie

bye for now
