It checks all the boxes on my list.
Of course I used my A+ scraper tool.
Melissa of Melissa's Antiques guessed correctly my favorite tool is actually a grill cleaner!
The hardest parts were the two small partitioned areas on either side.
Resorted to a toothbrush to clean those.
Notice the top is not attached.
The screws had ripped from the frame.
Wood glue, clamps and four new screws fixed the darling right up.
But they are sturdy.
Though I do lust after it.
See y'all!

She is GORGEOUS! I hope you put a nice high price on her--she's worth it :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Donna, how can you resist keeping that one??! It's all that - age, coloring, hardware (those casters!). Someone's gonna get a real prize in that one.
ReplyDeleteDonna she is a beauty. It will sell fast. Love the color.
ReplyDeleteKris

Linda

I would snatch that up in a heartbeat if I were closer. I do so love it! I got a similar box at the estate sale last weekend (old sears roebuck shipping box) but it didn't have wheels. It went away to my new booth.
ReplyDeleteOH! It's a beauty!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be able to resist it's charm. It will definitely be a very happy purchase for some lucky lady.
ReplyDeleteOh the color is just divine!! How can you part with it?! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is BEAUTIFUL! I'd have a hard time giving it up... :-)
ReplyDeleteAwesome find, Donna, as I am really into blue right now. I bought a new can of blue paint this weekend. Love, love, love the chest!
ReplyDeleteGreat tool chest Donna ... I am sure I could find a place for it.
ReplyDeleteI love that tool chest. I know I would buy it if I was closer. It is probably a good thing, I'm not as I'd be in your booth every day! LOL!! Have a great week.

Oh my... I would have to keep her, but I know you can't keep everything.
ReplyDeleteI lust after it too! Love the color and lovely patina. I'll bet it's the first thing to sell. Thanks for sharing at Talk of the Town.
ReplyDeleteAck--love this! It makes my heart go pitter-patter! Thanks for linking up to Talk of the Town!
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful piece! I'm sure it will sell quickly for you. I would like to invite you to link up to our party, Sweet Inspiration. It starts today and runs until Tuesday. Hope to see you there.
ReplyDeleteI love the colour (of course) and the fact that it has wheels!
ReplyDeleteThe color and patina are just scrumptious! Thanks for sharing on Friday's Furniture Fix! ;o)
ReplyDeleteI love this post. I have a box that I can use and I just need to find some wheels.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing with SYC.
Just popping back in to say how much I love, love, love this tool chest. So much so that I'm featuring it at Vintage Charm tomorrow. Thanks so much for sharing it with us,
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous color! I don't think I could part with that treasure ... I'd put a really, really high price on her in the hopes no one buys her and could then bring her home .. guilt free. :D Good luck at your event! Cynthia
ReplyDeleteadorable!
