Dresser Re-do


I had this in my shed forever.
It was in pretty bad shape.


The top has some problems 


and the sides......


I don't have before pictures.
Of course I started painting then thought of it!!!
Bad before and after blogger!! 
 Bad, Bad





As you can see it is a really nice piece.
Painting it white gave it a whole new life!
Leaving it wood and repairing all that needed to be done
would have taken way to long for me!
As I said before 
I hate sanding!!!!





Found this lamp in a salvage yard.
The cord was very old and I didn't want to plug it in and 
have it blow out my electric so
I stuck a candle in it!




And these letters are my Grandparents love letters!
Everybody had such nice penmanship back then.

  4. What a darling dresser! You brought life back in this piece! Great idea to repurpose the old lamp. You have a one of a kind candlestick. Penmanship is dying breed. I think because so many people text and email. Love your dresser and the cozy corner!

  13. Hi, I found you on Melissa's Inspired Room site. Wow, what a difference a little paint makes! If you didn't have a close up on all the defects, I doubt anyone would even notice. Love the mirror and the chair. The total look is just lovely!
