I've been busy making it nice:

Before

 

After

I hand painted the designs [took so fing long] but I'm happy how they turned out I guess

those knobs aren't staying, I just stuck them in there to cover the holes haha.  I plan on putting some antique glass 'bulb' knobs instead.  [I just need to come up with 2 others for I only have one.]

There once was a draw but the draw front was missing when I found it.  I'm going to leave the remainder of the drawer and add a boarder to cover the bottom gap so its like a neat little pull out shelf for books and such.

 

NOW, I need opinios. What to do with the top surface? Decopoge? I was originally planning on decopoging it and I have the modge podge and some possible pictures and such lined up, but now i'm  not sure.  I was going to do vintage ads, flyers, and posters ie: coke cola girls, chat de noir, the famous cuba poster.  I also considered doing black and white, and sepia photos of vintage fashion models from the 20s, 30s, 40s.  OR! old black and white post cards, all uniformed the same size and aligned neatly.  So what are your suggestions?
