I haven't been blogging much lately but I have been painting up a storm. Today I finished a lovely set of English pine drawers. While I hate the 1980's Australian pine that's all varnish and now turned orange, I love the old English pine - so blonde and pretty but still needing paint :)
While I was painting these drawers I actually found an English penny wedged in the corner of a drawer. I would love to know more of the story or where these drawers came from. I didn't take a photo as I wasn't feeling very well and just decided to get stuck into the painting. I've had a sore throat for a few days and have been feeling a bit dizzy. In between resting I did some painting as I find it hard to relax for too long.
Lovely English pine drawers painted in a beautiful putty colour and waxed. Silky smooth. Drawers are dovetailed but obviously not on runners.

Don't you wish old pieces could speak and tell us their stories! I think the painted dresser looks very nice.
