Bedside Table Start and Progress

 So, like a total fool I forgot to take original photos of the bedside table before I started, however, there are some images here which give you a pretty good idea of what it was like. 

The bedside table was stripped back as much as possible in the time frame I had allotted myself.

After being sanded down the cabinet was varnished give it a nice sheen. At the same time moulds had been used in order to make a concrete front for the drawer and a handle for the cabinet.

 The mould was poured in two layers. The first layer was to ensure a nice finish for the front of the drawer and then a second to secure the drawer in place. This did not work and the concrete crumbled when the mould was taken apart. This process was re-thought and I decided to pour all of the concrete in one go as well as give the drawer a wire interlocking grid to give the concrete more to bond to rather than just the edges of the drawer.
