i thought alot about what i would do colourwise while painting on the 1st
2 coats of undercoat, and decided it had to be done up in 2 contrasting colours.

and of course sanded the edges to allow the original timber through
i was glad to find the 4th drawer knob hidden at the back of the drawer,
so popped them back on to keep a bit of an industrial look going.
