The Finished Product

I got it done!  I was able to sand off the blue RV letters with fine sandpaper, got some of the old paint off  but some still remains as I think I would have done damage to get it all off.  The paint tells the story of its life and after using Howard's it looks fine.  There are still sharp edges from several nails that went through to the inside and I will probably file them in case I use it to store fabric??  For now it will sit in the garage until it drys and the smell is gone.  I love the way it looks and that Howard Restor is great stuff, I will definately be using it again!  Thank you again to Deb from Proper Prim for your wonderful suggestions

Before pictures are in the previous post.  Here are the AFTER  pictures, what do ya think??

Latest Finish & The Box

Here is a recent completed quilt top,  my All Star quilt,  I need to prepare the backing and then it will be ready to send off to be quilted.   I am looking forward to when this is quilted and the binding is done then I can decided where in MY house I will put it! 

Today I hope to work on the box that I found several weeks ago in our shed.  Thanks to Deb @ Proper Prim I will be using Howard Restor to try and give it a cleaning and make it a little prettier, I have already used the air compressor and blown off the dust.  Now I am going to try and lightly sand off the blue RV and try to get the paint spots off then I will be putting on gloves and Howard's wish me luck.  FYI, I have stained wood in our house before but never anything old, as a matter of fact my hubby showed me how to cut molding and I used that skill for the basement room where all my unused exercise equipment is set up!  While I wouldn't be able to get a job with as a finish carpenter I can get by.

Have a great day!
