Five Drawer Dresser-$130.

I wish I could find more of these dressers.  They are fun to paint and never stay in the studio for a very long time.  I just love the pink and black combination.  I really should look into buying some blue paint; pink really is gender specific.


This is a before photo. As you can see, I had already started sanding when I remembered to TAKE A BEFORE PICTURE!





Pretty isn't it?


The minute I see those extra design details I start thinking about using more than one colour.  I sand the hardware prior to painting and run it through the dishwasher to be extra sure the spray paint will adhere.


I use wallpaper as a drawer liner. 


The secret to a smooth finish is sanding, sanding & more sanding.
