SPOILER ALERT!!- Painted Wood Ahead! Avert Your Eyes If You Are Sensitive To Those Types Of Images!! (Posting this so Allen won't feel so bad about having to use paint.) Finished up the two little jewelry chests, yesterday. Thanks for all of the suggestions about flocking the inside. I guess it turned out OK for my first ever attempt at that sort of thing. The Mom was going to do a "Shabby Chic" finish but changed her mind. She picked the colors and did the painting. These are made from poplar. I bought the foam ring inserts from Amazon (don't forget to sign up for Amazon Smile). The little knobs are from Hobby Lobby. Sides/top are 1/2" thick. Drawers are 1/4" thick. Inserts 1/8" thick with half lap connections- except the top divider which is dado-ed. Found the hinges at Lowe's Mom took over at this point and used an acrylic latex.Then returned them to me to finish the inside. I got the flocking directly from "FlockIt". Fast service. Got it in 2 days. The worst part of the flocking was doing the drawer insert. I was going to do each piece separately but realized the thickness of the adhesive and the flocking material would not permit them to be reassembled. Also, could not find any really tiny brass eye screws, locally, for the chain (Hobby Lobby). Made do with small round head screws (Lowe's). I guess the little girls won't have any trouble telling them apart. Thanks for looking.
