Freshen up!

I have been dying to paint this chest for so long.  But you know how it is...you get stuck sometimes. 



I can't tell you how many similarly painted chests I have in my pinterest



So, when I was out with Bandit this morning my daffodils just swept me away





I'm so glad I finally grabbed the brush.   What an improvement.



and all my stuff just goes with it!   The old purse I bought in Savannah, my old sconces, even the more modern crate and barrel vase...











O.k. Mom I approve


But now it's nap time...zzzz

    Oh! I love the shape and curves of that dresser. What a gorgeous piece, and the colour is perfect.

    Hi Ashley,

    Thanks! I've seen these bombe chests in Home Goods. Even if the finish is ugly the shape is the best!

    I have that EXACT chest that has been sitting in my garage for months, waiting for her makeover. Now that I see how much better yours looks, I may just have to get on with that project.

    What type of glaze did you put over the piece? So pretty.
