This planter box was repurposed from a bigger entertainment piece.  I only sanded enough off the finish to smooth and open the wood.  I thought it would make an interesting mix.  OK.  My arm got tired.  I have no idea what made this gold sheen.  That’s why I love repurposing.  It’s full of wonder!

For this dresser, called Blonde Waves, I mixed the wood dye with varnish to make my custom colors.
