I have this antique wash stand that belonged to my grandmother. It has been painted several times. I have wanted to strip it for a while, but never got around to it.
It has a marble top...
When I started sanding, this is what I found. I do love these colors and knowing that my grandmother painted them on kind of connects me to her. She loved painting furniture, and I have spent the last 10 years stripping all that paint! Knowing how hard people work to get this distressed kind of look made me think about just coating this with paste wax, but it's just not for me, and it wouldn't work in the room. I really enjoy the process of stripping everything down to the bare wood and bringing it back to life. But that's just me...if there's a trend, I'll go the opposite direction for some reason, lol.
So back to work getting this stripped and ready for a finish. Here's a peak at the other piece I stripped and refinished that you will be seeing in the room...
Hoping to have it finished by Monday!! Have a fabulous weekend!!
