After in Typewriter…Ta Da!

what a difference!

what a difference!

This darling was found off the beaten path just outside of Harrodsburg, Kentucky on our yearly trip along the world’s longest yard sale through Kentucky and Tennessee.  It had good bones but somebody had not been kind.  There were scratches in the wood, some torn veneer, and even a big hole!

We did two coats of MMS Typewriter on the outside and three coats of MMS Trophy on the inside because, man, does raw wood soak up some milk paint! We finished it off with a coat if antiquing wax all over and buffed to a shine.  Isn’t she beautiful now?
