THANK YOU GRAPHICS FAIRY french bath cabinet

I am always on the look out for fun graphics to use on some of my furniture projects.
I search the internet high and low for fun graphics that I can use in different ways.
The GRAPHICS FAIRY brings together thousands of graphics
making searching a little bit easier.
translated this one reads,
Cologne
specially distilled by
Giraud Son Paris
for
colonial society
department stores
Saigon - Hanoi
 
This is the 8 reversed print outs taped together.
This is what I use to burnish the graphic right onto to the doors.
 
 
After the graphic has been transferred to the paint I used a black sharpie to darken it. 
*SPECIALLY DISTILLED BY*
landed on the first drawer stringer and it didnt look right
so I removed it.
Im referring to this as a bathroom cabinet because it is only 18 inches deep and with the
Perfume label on the face it would look great and function well for towel storage.
But there is nothing stopping the imagination running away with all the different places
in the home it could be used.
You can find a side by side before and after pic here

BEACH GRAPHICS seaside cabinet transfers

My entire day yesterday vanished before my eyes and so did the post I
was going to publish, so for those of you patiently waiting it has now arrived.
These are the 3 images I found online, altered, and transfered onto my
SEASIDE TV CONSOLE CABINET
Here are several articles I have written on the processes I use:
2011/12/compiled-information-graphic-transfers.html
2012/01/articles-de-paris-french-dressing-chest.html
2011/06/george-has-magic-printer-transfer.html
I use a 96 bright and a 24lbs standard office paper with an HP Office ink jet printer.
This time I did not repaint or touch up the transfers,
I used just the ink from the printouts and protected it.
