After

Before

This beautiful solid wood telephone/entry way bench, has been painted in a light blue/grey chalk paint. It has 2 coats of polycrylic, for a tough finish. This would look great in an entry way. If you are like me, and getting a little older you need to sit down and put on your shoes. It would look fabulous with a glass bowl on top, to put your keys in. It is 33 1/2" tall by 16" deep by 27 1/2" wide. Decor not included.

The ugly duckling, has turned into a swan. She has been stripped, which did not work. She was covered in, a top coat that was bumpy to the touch. It was like glue when I sanded her down. The top has been covered in about 7 coats of varathane, which has given it a mirror finish. The body has 2 coats of primer, to stop the old wood stain from coming through the paint (which gives it a very dirty, splotchy look). She was then painted in a custom chalk paint. The drawers have bee...n decopauged, in a French themed vintage look fabric. The knobs have been replaced, the drawer knobs are vintage. They have been painted in a pretty brass colour. The door handles are brand new from lee valley, then painted in a pretty matching brass. The body has been top coated with polycrylic twice. Then I used an antique wax, to give it a vintage feel. She really has been a labour of love. It measures 60” wide by 20 1/2” deep by 40” tall, with back piece. The drawers are 28” wide by 15” deep, by 7 1/4” tall. The bottom one is 8 1/4” tall. Cross posted. Fcfs, pick up north east Edmonton. Price is negotiable. Delivery may be possible, with prepayment and an extra charge, depending on location. Asking 600.00, obo.
