Time Release

This dresser had some good things going for it, and a few things that should be boxed up in a time machine and sent back to whatever era they came from. Unfortunately, Jen doesn’t have a functioning time machine, but she does have a handy husband, (which is even better, in my book!) who helped her turn it into the stunner it is today.

They freed it from the funky fake plastic inserts that were confining it to the ’70s, and achieved that gray stain with the ol’ vinegar and steel wool trick. I have tried that trick too, but I never get that lovely gray stain! Mine turns everything like, beet red.  I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I opened a carton of eggs upside down today, so obviously I’m having trouble winning at life lately.
