The Two-Toned Nightstand -- $ 195

I found this next piece at one of my favorite thrift stores.  There was a matching sidekick nearby but it was in rough shape, so I chose to take only one home with me.  It was very homely, but rock-solid.




I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do with this one at first, so I started out by sanding all of the varnish and stain off of the top to check out what was underneath.  Amazingly enough, the wood grain was gorgeous!  So I spent about 6 hours getting this beauty bare.





Hickory??  Ash??  No clue.  But it's solid wood.  Pretty, eh?

Now that I was ready for stain, I thought, "Stain is not that funKy...........or is it?"  I decided to stain the drawers a different color than the body, and here is the result.......




This would make a great nightstand, especially if you have a high bed.  This baby stands 31 1/2" high, 24" wide, and 18" deep.  It can be yours today for $195.  Local pick up only,  Gilbert, AZ.  Cash Only Please.
