Welcome back my Beauties!

Long time to see.

Time seems to go faster and faster and I think I am staying ahead of the game and then I realize I haven't posted in a while.

So since I had a second to breathe I thought I would quick put up one of the pieces I worked on this summer.

This big ole beauty!

Now I have had this dresser for over 2 years.

I don't know why I waited so long to work on it; but I think I just didn't know how I wanted to work with the style of the piece and instead of forcing it, I let it sit until I felt inspired!

I loved the lines of it but it was in pretty terrible shape.

You can see here the top was pretty beat up and the middle drawers were gouged and missing hardware.

It was at this point I decided how I wanted to update this dresser.

I wanted to keep all the hardware so I decided to fill the extra holes on the middle drawers and space out the remaining hardware. 

For the hardware I cleaned it all and then used Rustoleums Gold spray paint to give it a clean and shiny finish.

For the base I wanted to work with the tone of the wood.

I was planning on keeping the wood tone on some of the drawers and just cleaning them up really well and using a litte Restore a finish. 

The Persian Blue Milk Paint by General Finishes worked perfectly to accent the wood.

I sanded the base and the middle drawers after filling the extra holes and wiped it all down and then gave it two coats of the paint.

Once it was dry I just added the old hardware back on.

Can you even believe this is the same piece.

I love how the hardware and the warm wood tones  play off the Persian blue paint.

Plus the fact the cleaned up and painted the hardware stands out so much better.

I am so glad I waited to be inspired on this piece.

I don't think it would have turned out as well as I rushed it.

I hope you enjoyed this latest makeover.

I really haven't been that absent,
