PROGRESS!!

YAY!! We're making progress on the Davis cabinet!! I expect Miz Hazel the Machine to be up and sewing by the end of the week!!

William put the treadle base back together after we painted the rough and/or rusty spots!




Tonight, I tackled the coffin top and drawers...(I *REALLY* need to buy some gloves!! I don't think I'll ever get my hands clean again!) The top is looking good, as are the drawers.





The drawer pulls surprized me the most. What I thought was dull brass turned out to be silver!! I'm not sure of the metal, maybe nickle?





Tomorrow, I tackle the remainder of the cabinet...and then I'll start with shellac. I think it's going to be so pretty!!



Goodnite....thought I'd share Friday's sunset with you!
