I found this campaign piece at The Salvation Army the other day for $27 and brought her home. I was thinking what can I do with you little boo boo. She is missing a corner plate, but I think I can find one that will fit it, so no biggie. Other than that she really is in pretty good shape.

So in comes my friend Klean Strip Paint Stripper, and Klean Strip After Wash
The after was clean, and beautiful. The whole layer of stain came right off and left me with this lighter shade. To be honest, I thought about doing the whole piece over with the stripper, but it would have been to much work. Maybe another time.
Stay Tuned to see the results…
Sorry.

I cannot even tell you how jealous I am! I have been searching everywhere! Cannot wait to see the final product. Look on ebay or google shopping - I've seen the brass hardware via both of those!
DAMN! So Jealous!!! SO SO SO jealous! Try White! Just plain White! FAB!
You lucky girl! I'm still trying to find the nerve to ask my inlaws for theirs! I've always liked them painted in a funky color. But, I don't know where you're using it.
Mine will surely go in TJ's room (if I ever get one)!
great find! i love me some thrift shops :) looking forward to the reveal!
I am sure that you are going to make it look great as all your projects seem to come out in the end. Are you sure this is just a hobby, lol?
