Oak Dresser {Before & After}

Another great thrift store find.  It was dirty and creaky and wonky but the drawers were dovetailed and it was solid oak.  I fell in love with the possibilities of this little chest of drawers.


I decided to go with a little daring color!  I love this oregano green.  I waxed it with a dark wax and sprayed the hardware dark.  It couldn't be cuter!


I think it would be darling in a kitchen filled with dish towels and linen.


I'm feeling so accomplished making headway on the projects piled in the shed.

Onward to the next!

Pine Dresser {Before and After}

I found this dresser at a local thrift store missing all the knobs.  Solid pine and in otherwise good condition, it was too good to pass up.  I love, love, love the color and I think the glass knobs are perfect.  I almost spent more on the knobs than I did on the dresser...didn't dawn on my that I needed 12 when I bought the thing!



It's found a new home in the beachy section of the shop - $145.  I think it needs to go home with you!

On to the next piece!
