Aug - 12 Months of Projects: Bun Feet
Here is the before and after - now that before was taken a long time ago and I didn't even have the lace to cover it. You can see it's very primitive - made from scraps of wood but I love the chippy old teal paint so much!!! I got this wayyyy back in the early 80's from a friends shop and I've always loved this piece. It worked great on my tile floor prior to living in our house but since it's been here (almost 30 years now) I've never been able to use the bottom drawer due to carpet not allowing it to move (remember primitive not made well) So unless you lifted the entire piece back the drawer remained empty.
I've had the bun feet now since beginning of 2020 so I thought it was time to quit dusting off the feet/hinges and put them on ;)
Well as always that wasn't as easy as I thought since there was no bottom just the drawer - duh that's why it wouldn't move LOL So a little ingenuity from the Hubs and I got a bottom and the feet on :D Yay!!! Now will see if I really do love them as I can now take them off and the drawer will still work :D Time will tell!!!
The middle picture shows the pretty side of the piece and that's what you see from the top of stairs - I really should have taken that darn before picture from this angle - oh well
