Challenge accepted

Hello Tag Poppers

I have accepted the challenge to take a $20.00 bill and get something that I can turnover and make some money.  As many of my readers know, I like to refinish furniture and this weekend I found a new project to tackle.  I bureau, probably from the 1940's and in need of some scraping, otherwise the piece is solid wood and quite handsome.  It cost $5.00 and the folks at the garage sale actually transferred it to my home, four miles away!!! Bonus!

My plan is to scrap off the varnish/paint and sell it. I would normally not want to take the varnish off, but with this piece I think it is necessary.  Also, as a fan of the Antiques Roadshow,  I know that scraping the finish off will reduce the value.  I think, in this case, scraping may actually increase the value.   ; )

I spent $5.00  on the furniture, which means I have $15.00 to buy any supplies I may need for this specific project.  I will need new handles and also some new supplies, as yet to be determined.  I will subtract any money spent from the original $20.00 and put that into the next purchase...or the cost of advertising the finished project.

I will post a picture and you can track the progress.

Happy Tag Popping
