It is always interesting how I don't notice all the flaws with a piece at the auction. When I previewed the auction, I just made sure to check the drawer. By the time I loaded it up after the auction, the drawer had been broken. Once at home and in good lighting, that is when I noticed all of the veneer issues. I tried patching all the places where the veneer was chipped but noticed the seam right in the middle of the top. I knew my original idea of slapping on some paint wouldn't turn out like I wanted. Enter sheet music. I had been inspired by Miss Mustard Seed's beautiful sheet music dresser. After painting, modge podging, distressing, glazing, and polying, here is the new and improved furniture piece....
An up close look...
