Sailor´s Nightstand

If you want to bring the summer vacation feel into your home let me show you how :)

After I removed the ugly wheels and handles I used electric sander to remove old varnish from the base and drawers. Once that was done I used water-based paint for the base and two drawers. For the other two I just used a blue paint for painting :)

Once the paint was dry I used the sander again to create the "old" look and have the beautiful wood pattern come out :) After that I sealed the base and drawers with clear matt varnish.

P.S. Yes I work in my slippers :))

I was deciding between two ropes I bought. At the end the white one felt better. I cut the rope (secure both ends with tape) and glued them into the holes - which I previously enlarged to fit the rope in.

Insides didn´t fit with the whole look so I bought a thick cardboard and glued it inside each drawer. Soo much better :)
