Moving in the 1960's Dresser-Buffet


 Hi Friends,

 Today is the day! I'm so excited to be moving in the upscale dresser for the buffet base for a thrifted hutch cabinet I found this Summer

Started with this 


 a lot of sanding and drying time was spent because of very low temperatures.
*****

staining the whole piece with "American Walnut" and bringing it in the house to dry properly.


adding the top cabinet (refinishing it when it's a lot warmer.)
*****

 

New china hutch with November décor,
I've moved my Coca-Cola collection to the top of the new China hutch


Ended with this...I Love it!!



Thank you all checking in to see how this project turned out.
I would love to hear from you all, What do you think?

So until my next post....May God Bless You and Your Family,

Vintage Buffet Repurposed Dresser - Top Coat and Cold Temperature

 Hi Friends,

Another little update on my new buffet repurpose dresser

I'm sealing the buffet project and the temperature are dropping fast.

My Darling Sweet Man put up tarps in the garage where he set up heaters to try and keep a manageable temperature for drying the top coat 



60 was the highest temp we were able to keep steady in the tarp tent,
temps out side were in the low 30's in the day but teens at night



It did take a little longer but, it's drying. 

Thanks for checking in at My Little Colorado cottage
I always love to hear from you.

until next post.......

May God Bless You and Your Family this Holiday season!

Vintage 1960's Dresser Repurposed

 Hi Friends,


Today I'm giving you an update on how the repurpose 1960's dresser with a blonde lacquer finish, is coming along. Not to exciting, but this is what I have been doing when the weather permits.

I started sanding, however the finish was mucking up the sandpaper


Then I went to stripper let it do it's thing scraped it off


sanding again with 150-220 grit


let it dry some and do the process again and again.

Thanks for stopping by.
Until my next post.....
