Back To Minis

Now that the holidays are over I can get back to working on my many unfinished projects.
 
This project was started about 4 years ago. I used a box from work that came from a drug rep. At this point it just needs to be trimmed out. The cardboard is pretty flexible. In hindsight, I would not use it again, but what's is done is done.
 
I cut channel molding to frame out the box.
 
The dresser was given to me by my Great Aunt Edna, my Grandma's little sister. I love that I can see my Grandma's notes from her build on the back side of the drawers. I miss her writing.
 
I drilled a hole into the back of the box and into the back of the dresser to be able to hang it on a wall.
 
My Grandma made the rug and the umbrella. The kitten on the rug was from her collection. I plan to put a photo of my grandparents on the right side of the dresser. Just needs some crown molding and baseboards.

  1. Me encanta como te está quedando, las ventanas son preciosas y la cómoda de tu tia abuela es un tesoro, el cuadro que quieres poner de ella estaría genial.

  2. I think it looks great! Why wouldn't you use the cardboard again?

    1. The cardboard warped some over the past few years. It could be the way it was sitting.
