Let's make a deal

It's done!
And I want to keep it - except as you know by now John is insisting we sell it - so we've made a deal -
I'll list it for sell for 2 weeks - and if no one bites - than it's mine - I have to be fair after all.
He doesn't have to know that I'm going to list it for 4000,00 dollars, does he?

Here it is in all it's filthy grimy dirty state!
Oh let's get a before ( I almost forgot I'm so excited to see if you guys like it as much as I do )

I swear this picture almost hurts my eyes - that's the brightest orangey wood I've worked on I think
After you look at the after photo - come right back to this one and you'll see what I mean!



and NOW



Ok - I thought I could hide it - but as you can see I didn't finish the bottom of the legs yet lol - couldn't lift it, so have to wait for John -
And I haven't dirtied up the far left hand side of the dresser yet - God I can't get away with anything, can I?

What do you think?
Do you want to see some close ups now - oh I'm so glad that you do because do I ever have close ups for you!

This is my Batman photography skills - and not the movie versions you " under 50's " - the t.v. version from the sixties - they used to angle the shots............................


This is my " special lighting effects " photography skills



My " up close and personal " photography skills



My " bird's eye view " photography skills



John was walking by as I was taking this shot

John says - What the hell are you doing standing on the dining room table?
Suzan says - Trying to get a bird's eye view shot of the dresser
John says - Why?  You going to try to sell it to an eagle?
Suzan says - If that's your attempt at a joke you'd better go to bed John
John says - Why - you think you're the only one that can be witty?
Suzan says - THAT was not witty - that was just stupid really - not funny at all
John says - Bet you'll tell your bloggers what I said though
Suzan says - No, I'd be too embarassed to tell them that actually......................
Suzan says - I'm not happy about listing this John - I want to keep it
John says - 2 weeks Suzan - 2 weeks - that's all I'm asking for 2 weeks
Suzan says - You sound like a parakeet
John says - What?
Suzan says - forget it ...................

And one last time!




If anyone is interested in purchasing this - I'll give 500.00 off to blogger friends - so 3,500.00
Otherwise it's staying right here, ( where it most definitely belongs )

I've had a furniture makeover week from hell this week - not with this piece - but with a dresser and coffee table - I'll share in the upcoming posts

Have a wonderful Friday dear friends of mine!

I used Duck Egg Blue and White - Annie Sloan to customize this color
