I have been meaning to post this furniture makeover for quite some time now,
and just realized how far I have fallen behind with my blogging lately!
(apologies everyone!)
My Husband actually scored this find while helping a friend move and brought it home to me for a little labor of love. This was the very last piece of furniture that I painted before discovering chalk paint, so lets just say this massive project was a pain! Oh latex paint, you have many wonderful uses, but painting furniture is not one of them! This dresser took me about 2 weeks to finish and almost 7 coats of paint. Not to mention the hours of hand sanding that took place before even painting. Time consuming to say the least. But once this beauty was made over, it was gorgeous!

This dresser has now been SOLD and is being used as a beautiful entertainment center.
I get so excited seeing my pieces go to good homes and being loved!
