Roadside Thrft : Continued: Shelves, Primer, Baskets, Knobs

There's been a burst of energy and the roadside cabinet is showing some major progress over the past week! I think the cold weather setting in might have a bit to do with it. Check it out! it's looking amazing!!


The dresser now has the second coat of whit primer paint. You can see from the photo that she painted the interior where the baskets are too, so it's pretty. The baskets were found at Joann Etc. for $3.99 each (60% off). It's coming along, don't you think? She has all the drawers sanded and primed also.

 The tools of the trade, wood glue, sand paper, and wood filler.

I've been assured the dresser won't be painted orange (the can was just used for weighing down the shelf after gluing).

I jokingly commented that after mom purchased these drawer pulls from Walmart we would find a bag at some thrift store, and oddly enough we did. They were almost identical but were gold. After some conversation about those, we decided we liked the brushed nickle ones better.
