I feel that anytime someone can or wants to transform something "old" into something "new" they should go for it.

It looks like a shop would charge BIG money for it as opposed to the usual cheap back-to-school wal*mart-modern stuff i usually see "after." im usually the guy saying how horrible the afters are, but the deep orange wood peaking through that lottery scratcher gray is BEAUTIFUL!! a nice masculine note.

We have been contemplating getting rid of the piece, but this is inspiring. We may try the technique with a white wash. I have a piece almost identical to this that we inherited.
