The new year is off to a busy start! I am full of energy to get it all done. So this weekend I started it all and finished nada. I may need to revisit my approach!
Fortunately, I decided to keep a piece that I completed at the end of the year, and plan to share today.
I scored this unique dresser a while back. It was in pretty good shape, so I put it in my booth and was hopeful that I could sell it without painting it.

No luck.
So I brought it home and restyled her.

I left the top stained and reworked everything else.

I painted her and gave her a heavy distressing.

And my favorite part…

Using my Cricut and vinyl, I cut the numbers. Just a little fun to a traditional piece.




Paint certainly transforms a piece. What do you think?
I am keeping her for now. At least for a while.

Pin It
