Chest of Drawers Revamp - The Result

I'm delighted to say that my chest of drawers is complete and I am very happy with the result.  It looks great in my room and has received the thumbs up from friends and family that have seen it.

The final finishing of this little piece really made the difference and gave it an appropriately aged vintage look.  Here are some pics of how it looks now and how it used to look - a big change for the better:

I hope you enjoyed following my progress with this piece of furniture, drop back soon to see what I have in store for two bedside lockers that have seen better days.  Let me know what you think of my work on Funky Junk Facebook or at the bottom of this post.

Display Cabinet

A few years ago when I revamped my display cabinet by painting and distressing it, I had planned on lining the interior with some nice fabric or paper but never got around to it.

As I needed a little break away from my stool restore job, I set about digging up the wallpaper I had bought for the job.  I had chosen a vintage rose wallpaper as I love all things 'old' and this style suits my other home decor.

The job proved to be quite tricky as the wood in the cabinet is rough and uneven so it was difficult to stick the paper to evenly.

The original cabinet was finished in a dark stain and when I revamped it I left the interior unpainted.  Now after having lined it, I will probably paint the interior to brighten it up a little.

This is how it looks:
