Three ring-pulls


Here is a dresser I recently finished.

After

This dresser was very unfortunate looking when I brought it home.
It had some sort of goo running down the front of it that had hardened.
It was sick. This is the one that I used the paint stripper on.

Before

Anyway, I love how this one turned out. A little more elegant looking.
It would be perfect next to a bed I think.
Here are some pictures I have found with a similar style of dresser. Now these are way nicer and way more expensive, but they give ideas other than a simple little nightstand.

Now that the Holidays are just about over, and my classes are done, I feel like I will really be able to get some things done around here.
I have furniture up the wazoo that needs to be done and cannot wait to get to it.
So hopefully I will be updating alot more. I say that every time but I mean it this time.
This dresser is for sale if anyone is interested.
Email me for details.

Large and in charge

Finally I have another before and after to share. Now when I saw this, it didn't have quite the 'cute' hidden potential that I am usually searching for.
But the thing that caught my eye was it's size.
It is Giant!
My goal was to make it look like something you might see in the store Found. Everything there is very unique and they have tons of huge things. That is why I liked this.
So this one is mine to keep. I can fit so much in this. I included a picture with me next to it to show you it's size.

maybe the pictures don't show it's size. It's way cooler in real life.
P.S my pictures are dark because my room is a dark green color.
