So i decided to try a project.. i bought a dresser from one of my favorite yearly yard sales at DAY BREAK. it only happens once a year, but it is garage sale HeAvEn!! :]
So i bought this dresser for $ 25 bucks! Such a good deal! i bought it to use as an entryway table in my front room. sorry i forgot to take a picture before i started of it all put together but here it is all taken apart ready for paint
I decided to paint it a "pOp" color which in my front room is avocado green :]
i used a technique i found on pintrest call Chalk Paint. You mix water and plaster of paris and add it to the paint color and paint it on.. no sanding required. There is a catch.. it dries REALLY REALLY fast!! so paint fast!
Here it is waiting to dry! (worst part ever)
Here is all put back together.. i think i will put different hardware on.. just need to find the perfect knobs :] i love it!!
This weekend on my weekly garage sale trip i hit the jack pot! And i wasn't even going to stop at this one, but it was on the way so i went out on a limb. and i am SO glad i did! i got all this stuff..
