I just finished this dresser: I love the details in the second drawer. Originally a boring brown, I painted it white and distressed the edges. I kept all the original pulls except for the top drawer--and added 2 gorgeous glass knobs from anthropologie. My daughters' room is slowly evolving into more of a shabby chic style, which I am really loving now. I've been primping with beautiful finds from the thrift store: a white shabby photo holder, rose adorned box, and painted floral caddy. I'm still working on the bed that's opposite this dresser (you can partially see in the full mirror--also found at the thrift store.) Now go and primp!
Also, I am fascinated by this live video showing an eagle's nest in Iowa. I found this via a fellow blogger (not sure who now) and can't stop watching it. The mama eagle is sitting on 2 just barely hatched baby eaglets and 1 soon-to-hatch egg. It's been so fun to watch, one moment she was there alone, the next the daddy eagle had brought some food (maybe a mole or something) so she could feed her babies. So cool--you have to check it out.

ReplyDeleteI swoon over these kinds of dressers. They look so drab with bare wood, but once you paint them, they look amazing! I'm sure your daughter is delighted to have such a talented mom who can create a gorgeous bedroom for her. Good luck on the rest of the re-do!

ReplyDeleteHmm my comment seems to have vanished.
ReplyDeleteWhat I was saying: I love everything you are doing to this room, all the little touches, that great dresser and the bed I can see in the mirror. Your daughter must be very happy with her room.
I finally found a quiet morning to visit everybody again and actually leave a comment this time.
Thank you again for playing in my We Love White linky party!
