Something to reflect on

What good is a dresser if you can't see how studly you're looking after using it?  This weekend the matching mirror was attacked with a card scraper.  Then sanded with a random orbit sander at #100 and #150.  A hand sanding at #400 made sure the exposed end grain in all of the curves was Aqua Velva smooth.  One coat of Minwax PolyShades classic black was applied using a foam brush.  The foam brush applied this stuff thick and fairly evenly.  Here's some pics:
