 Milton Moose, being flooded from a stream behind it. The river is across the street. I'm sure the river and the stream will meet in the next day or two.

Eiffel Tower Dresser

I've moved....Please hop over to my new and much improved blog and read the story there......http://avierenouvele.com/2011/01/17/eiffel-tower-dresser/

My inspiration for this dresser I believe was a girl from Texas.

My computer crashed and I lost the link and pictures. If anyone knows, please tell me

so I can give her credit.

Edited to add:

Thanks Marguerite and Mariette! My inspiration came from Gussied Up Furnishings in Austin TX.

Marilyn & I found this broken down dresser at a yardsale for.........$3.00!

I couldn't believe the price! And it was the last day of the sale! I sanded it down and fixed the

damaged veneer top. Sorry, once again I forgot to take before pictures.

I painted it black and then distressed it really hard. Then modge podged old book pages to the drawer fronts.

I printed out the Eiffel Tower in sections and modge podged them on top of the book pages after they were good and dry. It was much harder than I anticipated to get everything straight and aligned! I just sprayed the original hardware black and reused it.

Then 3 coats of wipe on poly. (Love this stuff!)

She now stands proud at the entrance of the shop. I'm secretly hoping she doesn't sell (well not secretly.....everyone knows!) I would love to bring her back home!
