I finally did the distressing on the china cabinet today. I wanted to share what a difference it made!
This is before distressing...
Now, after...
See the difference? The handles stand out better.
I just can't believe I've went this long on not painting this sucker!
So much better...I can't stop staring....
And the top got a fresh new look.
Sara goes to the DR in the morning. There has been a little improvement, so I thank you all for your prayers.
Now, I can get on to other things.
I have a slipcover I am working on for a dear sweet lady in Texas. This will be my first time doing this technique and I am so very happy that she entrusted me to do this.
So stay tuned!
Look wonderful. I agree, sometimes a bit of distressing does bring out the detail in a piece.
ReplyDeleteContinues prayer and hoping she feels better.
Hugs, Gee
The distressing looks great!
