I have wanted to paint words on the front of a dresser for a while now. I just haven't had the right dresser or come across a graphic telling me to paint it, until this nautical one I found via Pinterest.
Right about the time I pinned this graphic, my cousin called wanting to give me a dresser. Yay! To be fair, I'll be painting just about anything she wants for her new baby's room. It's a win,win for both of us.
Here's how it was when I got it, needing just a tad bit of work.
Good thing that this kinda of work is what the husband loves to do.
Here it is again after he did his thing and I gave it a quick coat of paint.
Next came the exciting part, painting the words on the front!
I don't like the furniture I re-do to look perfect, so I always ruff it up a bit, and glaze the letters so they look a bit dirty. We added these cute little glass knobs after sealing it. I really loved how this turned out.
I knew it would take just the right buyer since we live near a lake and not the ocean, but I didn't care. I really wanted to paint this graphic.
Like always the Lord took care of our needs and sent someone who loved enough to take it home.
