It sat in my junk room serving absolutely no run for close a twelvemonth until the arrival of Charlotte saw my junk room (which was the temporary home for many of my 'just because' items) decease sole existent estate for 1 beautiful bouncing bambino.

So, with our shortage of storage space made fifty-fifty shorter it was lastly fourth dimension to allow around things go, starting amongst my card drawer cabinet.

Before selling it though I decided a mini makeover was inward order.

Rather than pigment over the character-filled timber I exactly gave it a expert all over build clean too crude oil (just amongst slice of furniture polish) to retain too rear the master copy patina.


I also attached around corporation metallic castor wheels (as I had always originally intended). Along amongst the wages of mobility the wheels also add together plenty summit to give the cabinet perfect proportions for a java or deep side table.


I could solely detect argent steel castors which looked likewise modern paired amongst the quondam cabinet so I tinted them dark to resemble shape iron.
Here's a footling trick; rather than utilization spray pigment (which easily chips off smooth metal) I coloured the wheels amongst a black permanent marker!


It sounds time-consuming though it was genuinely rattling quick too and thus far has held upwardly great. Whilst I imagine it volition probable fade a footling over fourth dimension where the wheels roll it volition probably look nicely worn rather than exactly manifestly chipped.

So, mini refresh complete, I re-arranged my living room a chip to plonk the cabinet beside my leather couch to accept around photos for the eBay listing and....


....I'm kinda loving it!
