It would actually be better if you could comment on your other post and add the photo to your comment. That way we can all see where you started and where you ended up!

I think it is awesome to give a piece of furniture a new life. It is sometimes a bit daunting to take a paint brush to a piece made from genuine old timber but if you are going to get many more years of life and enjoyment out of it I think it is better than dumping it. I believe it shows your love. jbof4 I started with a heat gun to remove most of the many layers of paint, (some are easier than others to strip this way). Then I used an orbital sander and sanded and sanded and sanded. You might also try liquid paint stripper although I find this very messy. I believe you can also get them professionally stripped. Good luck with the resurrection, go for it what have you got to lose.

I'm doing up a bedroom and have seen this gorgeous bed end on a website - see attached photo. Does anyone know where I could get one from in NZ? Thanks!

Hi, just wondering if anyone knows where these stools might be from originally? They have metal legs and a plywood seat.
