I was shown a photo of a similar project by a friend and accepted the challenge to recreate. I bought an old dresser for $18 and began to wood fill and sand to get an even surface. Using a homemade chalk type paint I was able to cover the imperfections in the dresser. The classic lines of the Volkswagen van were painted in first. The VW symbol was a little tricky. After two failed attempts at creating a stencil from cardboard I ended up tracing a bowl and using painter’s tape. A trip to the habitat store landed the windshield wiper handles. My wonderful neighbor donated the headlights. The project was finished with several coats of wax.
