" Before "
Ok, so I bought this kinda ugly old vanity/dresser at Goodwill today. Check out all the old water marks and stains. You really have to look beyond the "ugly" and try to imagine the beauty in the piece. Is it the lines or the wood? Is it the age of the piece and does it have the potential to become something much more? I love to look beyond an item and try to transform the piece into a one of a kind treasure. I think we all love to do that. It is amazing how that "ugly duckling" can really become a Swan....Tell me what you think. Painted it my usual cream color and then thought why not try a little black stripe and wah-la.....
Love it!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful transformation!!! Love, love, love this!

I LOVE IT TIINA! I love what paint can do for an old, forgotten piece of furniture! Beautiful job sweetie, hope your weekend is going great ~ hugs and love, Dawn
ReplyDeleteYou know the old saying, one mans trash is anothers treasure. trash to treasures is my life there is nothing better then finding a piece like this and transforming it as you have done. I love it. I dream in white, as you can see in my shop, most all of the white furniture in my shop was furniture that people could not see beyond the scraches,stains,coats of old paint etc..I love my job-shop,seeing the diamond in the rough is what I do as you do. Great job on the dresses, thank you for sharing....
ReplyDeleteWere your ears burning today? I was just talking about what talent you have with a paint brush! Love the little details of the striping and numbers.
