Use a really soft sandpaper grit. Just go for it. cherrycherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16034449752355483382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962553956195325525.post-53854426639358321472008-08-12T20:00:00.000-05:002008-08-12T20:00:00.000-05:00Beautiful colors!

If you don't want to distress, you can always cracke finish with the white on top and the blue peeking through.Just say Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17489132324828015225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962553956195325525.post-87099410914394977472008-08-12T07:41:00.000-05:002008-08-12T07:41:00.000-05:00Oh Tara, These colours are lovely!

Just take some fine grit sandpaper, LIGHTLY, to the edges that would normally be worn: along the outer corners, along the bottom where the mop would hit, under the drawer at the knee-hole, where your legs might rub, or the chair might bump, and around the knobs where your hands would rub. <BR/><BR/>Go lightly, and add more as desired. Once you're down to the bare wood, you can go over those spots with some light stain on a rag, or even some beeswax polish, just to give it a nice, warm patina.<BR/><BR/>More pictures!<BR/>JoeJoeGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11544502534558271531noreply@blogger.com
