Say hello

...to B's Vanity!

My friend B scored this cute vanity from my friend A and all this girl needed was a quick clean, oil and beeswax, just like AM's Vanity! It's a miracle what a little elbow grease and oil can do for a piece of furniture. I love the glass inserts, especially the one that was etched with flowers. It had the date stamping on the back which I thought was pretty cool. I swear one day I will have one of these, I've always wanted one, just never had the room yet. 

Anyways, I couldn't believe how well she cleaned up, though I did have a few stubborn spots that didn't want to give... like the cute pink finger nail polish on the middle section and some green colored something (I'm thinking marker of some sort) on the right side. I figured hey, I know my friend B well enough that she'll think it adds character to it rather than ruining it. It was loved and that's all that mattered.

I hope your 4th of July weekend was wonderful! I love long weekends.... 

I have more to share with you this week, including some open shutter shots I took of the fireworks on the 4th and another furniture transformation. As always, thanks for stopping by today and remember to mention Retro Restyling to your friends. It's always great to get the word out there!
