Painting furniture (Part Two)

The handles came out of the carbonated beverage (the real thing) after 24 hours and I gave them a polish.


Sparkly!!!


And I put another coat on the hallstand, now it was looking good.


It was time to start the dresser, this was my Grandmothers and I can remember it from when I was little. It came to me in 1982 and now it's back in Devon again. It has got a bit shabby due to being in the corner



So I Sugar Soap washed it and put a coat of white undercoat on it,



followed five hours later by a coat of the grey. Now it was starting to look better.


I put the handles back on the Hallstand, refitted the drawers and moved it into place.


Tomorrow I'll finish the dresser off.
