Like you know I am always on the hunt for those kind of objects or furniture.
Like Valentino said " It's not my fault I like beauty". Well for me it's more " I like trash, I will turn it in something nice".
I love DIY challenges, so here is one of my projects I am finishing. It's an old little table with compartments. A really piece of woman furniture, but soooo practical. The pictures speak for them selfs. I hope you like the transformation.
The old version, very damaged. ( it had something, but it was really in a very bad state )
The new version.

Very nicely done! The black with the natural wood is very elegant.
My husband and I have many things from the streets of NYC- a couch, a Victorian library chair with a carver lion on the back, a shelf.
It's amazing what people throw out!
David,
PROFICIAT!!!! Het is zoooo mooooi! Echt waar! Dit is een stukje waar ik gewoon verliefd op word!
Koester het!
Greet
It's amazing what some work will do -it looks amazing!
Whatever Greet said, I agree. & I love the description of woman furniture-(a smart lady that.) la
Hi Daniel,
Thanks, I like the combination also very much.
Indeed, what people throw away sometimes is impossible to imagine. It seems you were luckey sometimes :-)
David
Hallo Greet,
Bedankt, ik zal mijn best doen om het te koesteren ;-)
David
AD,
Thanks for the compliment, a bit of work always pay off :-)
DAvid
LA,
Yes Greet has taste :-)
It seems all smart furniture is woman furniture lol
David
Really nice!! Good taste and good work pay off! I have several pieces that need refinishing in the garage - sigh. One is a small beautifully carved work table that when opened reveals a sweet primative (homemade!) painting inside the lid. The probleme is that the lid is warped. I think it calls for a professional, but I love the idea of doing the transformations ourselves!
van welke rommelmarkt zijt ge da weer gaan pikken?
I love the table...and I love you...;)
Le style et la matière,
Work on it ;-), life is too short to have projects and to never do them.
I am sure you will really enjoy it because you saved it.
David
Tottie, niet zomaar rommelmarkt, he
van diene achter mijn deur ;-)
David
Well Anonymous if your the same person who written that other comment then i thank you for the interest ;-)
I do my best on the table and the rest lol
David
David !! You did a great job. Love your new version
Thanks Mélanie
I did my best, but love the idea, that people like the result :-)
I bought a French Provincial dresser at a thrift store and your post inspired me to refinish it! Great work on your piece, it looks gorgeous.
