All the exterior pieces, however, had been painted with a thick coat of dirty white latex paint. We stripped them, replaced what wasn't salvageable, and I had Jack stain and finish all the pieces to match each other.Christine@Oliver's Bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14098874510166931749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124426191174569435.post-58950364108682710792008-11-19T11:43:00.000-05:002008-11-19T11:43:00.000-05:00Did you strip this or was it like that?

So now when you go to brush your teeth and you look up there is no mirror-- just a window. Step to the side to look in the mirror. I'm saving the cabinet that is covered with layers of paint to decide what to do with it. I went to the local salvage and they were selling them for $75 to $175 each. I have a big one. I'll post a photo soon.Just A Girl And Her Craftsman Bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12750435992760999949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124426191174569435.post-69523989660704478302008-11-19T10:59:00.000-05:002008-11-19T10:59:00.000-05:00It looks great!
