I love the technique. We inherited a simple, plain, homemade hutch and I'm working on upgrading, and adding more wood detail. This technique will be awesome on the two doors on the base unit.

Also, if I want to do this to a clear glass top table, do you think it would work?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095534364130455634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844708544206572327.post-80739052260565609712014-11-07T16:55:42.691+00:002014-11-07T16:55:42.691+00:00Heya i’m for the first time here.
