The armoire that is in Sam's room had been reworked a few times in the past. Someone had replaced the original door hardware with some glass knobs that did not work well with the piece. There were also several holes in the walnut due to old hardware.
We decided to replace the knobs with brass that were more fitting of the original style. Tyler also fixed the holes by patching in new walnut pieces. The locking mechanism is still in place but we don't have a key to fit it yet.
After filling the holes, it was all sanded flush.
Then it was painted to match the wood grain and color. Then a coating of shellac was placed over it.
And the new brass hardware was put in place. It looks so much better with all the holes filled.
