I can see this piece in a boy's room, or a man's office for storage! Is that called tiger wood? I love how the grain of the wood is still showcased. So cool!

I am loving the stripes! For some reason--I am always drawn to them. Also--that "new twist of union jack (dresser)" is awesome.

Love that you were able to leave some of that pretty wood showing through those stripes! That's a great look! Thanks for hosting another party!

Suzanne@Meridian Road said...

Cassie! I LOVE that! The wood is too pretty to cover up completely, and the black stripes frame it out so nice. Gorgeous, gorgeous piece!

Rita said...

This table looks really cool. I'm totally diggin' the contrast!! :)

Rosemary@villabarnes said...

Carrie @ Hazardous Design said...

Would you look at how beautiful the grain of the wood is now? You did a great job, Cassie. The stripes were a great idea too :)

Sharon @ Elizabeth & Co. said...

That is a whole different look for you! But it is very fun! And funny you should mention about the "Wednesday" party ... I am always confused by parties with a day of the week in the title, but then they start a day earlier. I thought it was some secret blogger thing thatr no ever mentions - ha!

Hi Cassie,

Linked up my iron and rope mirror. Didn't know if it counted as furniture or not, but I'm hoping it does. Thanks for hosting!!

I love how you put the stripes where the knobs are and then kept the knobs natural, very cool!

Kandas - Custom Furniture Consultant said...

You really scored on that chest! You could barely tell it was tiger maple in the before photo! You did a great job bringing out the lovely grain.
