2 New Pieces

Well, I just completed two new pieces for my bedroom.  I only remembered to take a before picture of the chair (typical!).

Here it is:


I bought this chair at a rummage sale for $1.50!  It is so sturdy, I knew I had to re-do it.  Here is the after:

One of the legs:


I LOVE IT!!!!!


I used Annie Sloan's Coco, a dark wax, and a clear wax for the chair.  Next, I painted a dresser that I have had for awhile.  When I picked up this dresser, it had multiple coats of latex paint on it.  I did not like it, so I stripped it, and stained it.  Well, after 9 years, I decided it needed another makeover.  Like I said, I forgot to do the before picture (oops!).  Here is the after.  (The pictures don't really do it justice...)






I used ASCP Aubusson Blue, and French Linen on the top.  It looks so nice in my newly painted bedroom with the king sized duvet cover I just made.  (More on that later).

Thanks for looking!  :)
