Yes the kids dresser is done! I'm going to tweek the finish tomorrow night just to make sure it's perfect or at least very close to perfect... Then it's a goner!
When I first bought it, I desperately needed a dresser and then (this always seems to happen!) I found something better! But at least I updated the dresser and it looks uber cute... New drawer pulls definitely complete a project.

Hopefully my after photos are OK. I took them at 9pm tonight! Gotta love the summer - I got a few hours of updating out of the way and the dresser should be gone in a jiffy!
That 'Nesting' Thang Again
Today I found a few items... Knick knacky type stuff for my new place. Here are a couple of the things I picked up. I was a little extravagant today but hey I'm worth it!
The mirror was $15 but I guess mirrors can be pricey. The nice thing about it is the frame and the fact that I could remove the mirror easily (I've been pretty darn clutsy these days so minimizing my potential for hurting myself is a bonus).
Then I got this candle holder - it's kewl! It was $10. I'm going to use both for my bedroom since they'll fit right in with the bedroom set I'm creating - off-white Art Deco pieces. The mirror will be off-white and I might hold off on shabby chic-ing it. Or maybe I'll change my mind and add some colour... Who knows!
I started working on the mirror while I was finishing up the dresser - I'm getting good at the assembly line updating/multitasking.
This week I should finish up the mirror just in time for my move on the weekend. I have piles of stuff here, there and everywhere. This is just one of my piles... Here's to an easy breasy move!
Note the very important purchase I made this weekend - a pound of Strait Coffee from Gibsons. YUM! Good coffee the morning after moving... Priceless!
I love the new look the dresser has. The drawer pulls definitely gave it an updated look!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love the drawer pulls especially when you use two different styles... Fun!
