dresser before1

Well, folks, I missed my Monday morning post. It happens, I know.

What have I been up to these past few days? I’ve been working on re-finishing a dresser that was given to us by my parents who got it from my dad’s parents when they got married.

It’s seen some rough times. I should know, having covered one of the drawers in circle-shaped stickers one afternoon as a child. Not good for a dresser.

Anyway, we’re passing it along to baby, and wanted to make it look presentable before we put it in the nursery. So, we painted it white. And it looks lovely. I don’t have the after pictures done yet, since we want to add the drawer pulls we found first, but rest assured, pictures are to come.

I love painting furniture! We bought a wood table off of craigslist and we’re going to paint it a cream color. Yay! Can’t wait to see the finished product!

It already looks better in these pictures than it did when it lived in our storage room.

Can’t wait to see the finished product! (Grandpa will be so pleased with your skills!)
