GREAT OLD BLUE DRESSER




What a great dresser this is ! It is really old circa 1820-1830. Since opening the store i finally decided it was time to paint something in a color other than white. I love white distressed furniture and every piece in my home is white. People were labeling me as the pink and white store, so i figured lets just shake it up a bit and allow some men to comfortably enter with some colors other thank pink and white. Not to mention I wanted to show the range of my painting abilities. I am very proud of the way this came out. I love the distressed look to it. I hope you enjoyed seeing it today, too!:-)

  4. I'm looking to strip down a piece of furniture of mine and do exactly this to it. Do you know of any websites that give exact directions for doing this kind of project? or do you have any of your own? It's a relatively new piece of furniture, about 7 years old. Please let me know!
    p.s.
    where can I come by that kind of blue?
