I bought a chest from a friend for $75. It had some normal wear and tear .... and also some missing molding. I painted it with Giverny (and a bit of another color) and did something to fix the molding issue! ;) The top got refinished in it's pretty wood glory.

As with a lot of these old pieces that have been loved and used well, there was wear and tear on the finish. The drawers were in perfect working order however! Sadly, it was missing a piece of molding though.

You can see some wear here ....

Missing molding...

I created a gorgeous finish using Giverny as the base color. The top got a very easy refinish job with some products I just love. See the link to the post below for all the details. :) I even did a little something, something to the hardware on this one too! Still keeping it mostly "authentic". Such a fun piece to complete. See the fully finished piece and all the makeover details, including the molding fix at the link below. Or visit my project gallery here www.artsychicksrule.com
