Shabby chic cottage dresser.....

Hey everyone! I am so sorry it has been so long since I have posted. Life has gotten in the way just a teeny tiny bit, but I hope to be posting more frequently now. Thanks to those of you who have sent me personal emails checking up on me to see where I have been. They meant the world to me....

So, onto the topic at hand...A plain boring vintage dresser....It was in great condition with excellent bones, but was in the need of a paintbrush and some TLC......


I chose a very pale gray/blue paint to brighten it up....Then distressed it resulting in perfection.....

    It's great to see you back here. I wondered where you had gone but I know life does get in the way and is more important really. This dresser looks beautiful! I like the colour and the distressing. Welcome back! Pamela

    I like how you distressed it. It would look to simple without that.
