Hollywood Glam

Hollywood Glam
and a little bit of Bling

Normally I can't afford to bid on Highboy dressers at the auction but this set was special. 
It literally fell off the truck turning into the auction house. Seriously.
They were still in great shape though, well other than the unattached legs! 
But hey they were all there. 
Score for me!

With all that being said there was no way I could re-stain these beautiful solid maple bad boys. Which really saddened me but I do love the way they turned out. This was one of those projects I would do something to it, stare at for days (okay sometimes weeks) and then add or change something and then stare at it again...you get the point. This project took a while.

Oh and sorry for no "before" pictures, I dropped my phone in the toilet (yes it was clean) and lost all my pictures. Hopefully I painted a good enough mental picture of what they looked like though! 

 



Check out the new hardware!!! 
It is SO cool, I think they really made the piece
Didn't come with a mirror, my guess it shattered, so I improvised. This mirror was originally the top to a coffee table.  




Let me know what you think.
