Bedside Lockers get a Makeover

Hi,

I didn't actually get these from JT but I bought them for €3 each at a charity shop. I just gave them three coats of paint and changed the knobs to a crystal rose and a ceramic rose.

My Grandad made a chest of drawers 40 years ago and I've done the same thing to it. It just needs one more coat and then I'll post it up here too.

For €3 and 3 coats of paint each, you've done very well, Scaryspex. Nice job! Thanks for sharing and we look forward to seeing your Grandad's chest of drawers. Bring it on!

Yeah the paint was only €10 and Ive a good bit left. The biggest cost was the knobs. But even they were a bit of a bargain. They were €5 for a pack of 4. So I bought 4 packs of different sizes and colours so Grandads chest will have different knobs on them which might look good. All in all.. Im very happy with how its going!
