I recently finished three more pieces of furniture that I want to share. The dresser has already found its new home so I only have two on the market at the moment.
I don’t have a “before” shot of this coffee table, but it was just a plain, brown color, in fairly good shape…
I’ve held onto this little dresser for quite a while and finally got the calling to work on it. This wasn’t quite the look I was going for. I should have just dry brushed the white topcoat rather that painting it a solid white and then removing the paint by sanding. It turned out a little too spotty for my taste…but hey…it sold right away. So what do I know?
And finally, here’s a little bed table/cabinet that I picked up at a 50%off sidewalk sale at a thrift store. That means in set me back $5 plus tax. My only investment was the oversized, square chrome pull from IKEA. But the hardware is always the eye candy and my favorite part of the project. Well worth it!
It’s funny how I just hated that tacky Mediterranean look from the 60’s and 70’s, and now I get so excited if I find a piece out there. It’s amazing what a little paint can do…
