Navy and White dresser makeover

Finally, gave a dresser a makeover!!

This dresser was my mother-in-law's and now handed down to my 2 little ones. I decided to first give the dresser a makeover before painting the room.  It was in good shape except for some of the drawers. As you see in picture below it got worn out by the knobs.

So, I went and started sanding down the drawers only with 80 grits , 120 grits and last 220 grits.

 For the body part I just went straight to cleaning it up, primed it twice and painted it white satin. For the drawers I primed twice and painted in navy blue.-  

 For the middle drawers got decoupage. Last sealed and added the same knobs on . 

Love the new life I gave it!

Happy how it came out! Now time to paint the room and decorate it!

Have a blessed day!

French Provincial desk makeover

Hi all! Sorry, I haven't been on lately due to my computer crash. My wonderful husband was able to fix it and give me a brand new 24" screen to connect it to. Trust me, me and electronics do not go together. For some reason I am horrible with computers. They seem to always shut down on me or end up with a virus. Anyways, today's post is about this cute creamy yellow French style desk I got. I had a customer that wanted a French provincial desk.

 After I got the desk all cleaned up and lightly sanded the top, primed it twice and next was to figure out how to paint it. Looking at all the paints I had I had to come up to mix that would work.

 I painted most parts of the body white. Top, drawers and sides were silver/grey along with some gold trim and hardware finish. Last, I sealed it and came out gorgeous classy desk! I absolutely loved it! It feels good to see my customers happy and satisfied with my work! This is the primary reason that I am doing this since financially does not really make sense given the time I put in these pieces

Excuse the lack of  staging on this desk!

Elegant Queen of Anne Desk/Vanity makeover

Happy New Years to all!!

Hope you all had wonderful holidays! I know I did for sure.
Well today's post is about a desk transformation! I am finally able to get around and write about this vanity I did a little over 2 months ago. Desk was in excellent state. Queen of Anne desk along with a nice bench!  
                                                        She was just to plain and boring

I slightly sanded it, primed it twice and painted in white satin. Then added gold feet and trim around! Can you tell I am obsessed with gold feet!!!! LOL
Last, I worked on the bench.

I repeated the steps as I did on the desk then off looking for a nice fabric for it!
Which I found!
