Face Lift

I found this beauty and couldn't resist picking it up. I paid more than I wanted for it, but I thought it had good bones.

I love that it is an old record player. It even has the original stickers and "brand tags on the inside. I lightly sanded, painted it a sagey-blue green and dry brushed it to give it some depth and character. I still have to pick up a small handle for one of the doors.

But, other than that I love how it turned out!! I am going to be selling it over at Recycle Love consignment this weekend.
