The Pretty Dresser Found a Home

Posted by MAKMU ta On Monday, June 13, 2011 No comments

I'm home!  You know what that means? The dresser has a new home, too. My newly finished dresser is finally in my room and I'm lovin' it.  This all started back in March when I found this at Goodwill:



I updated by painting it white and adding fun sparkly knobs.  Much more my style! If you missed the step by step process on how I refinished it, you can find it here.


I wanted to update my room by switching out my little girl/teenage furniture with something more modern and more me, and since this is my first week back from school, I finally had the chance to do so. Don't be mad, but I was a bad blogger and totally forgot to take a picture of my old dresser that sat in my room for 8 or 10 years...but here is its matching desk set, so you can imagine what the dresser looked like. 
It was big, had a laminated wood top with mirror attached, and had some floral designs on the top.  It was cute for being younger, but out it goes!


 In with the newly refinished dresser:




Fresh flowers in pretty jars and vases are a must!





I lined each drawer with a coordinating paper: 


A cake plate is a fun way to display my favorite flowers for my hair: 


Still loving my Anthro knobs: 



Hi (:
