Dresser Before & After

First of all let me say thank-you for all your ideas & opinions for the frame on my previous post. The frame is now white:) Can't wait to get it finished and show you!

And now...

Here is the dresser that I FINALLY have pictures for! As all my facebook friends know I've been busy painting this & that and now I have my first before & after ready to show you:)

Here is the beaut' before: Don't you just love laminate???


Oh yes, it was soooo pretty....


Tada!! Not too shabby, huh?


Here's the "new" hardware... Let me just say Oil Rubbed Bronze spray paint is my new bff!!! Love that stuff, it is so amazing the change it makes. Goodbye brass, hello gorgeous! Now I must say that this hardware is so not my pick but for now it will do just fine, I was trying to spend as little money as possible. A $5 dresser, $1 jar of mistint paint, and a teeny bit of spray paint, I think that's pretty good:) At least I'm happy:)

And one more parting shot...
I'm having so much fun with projects around the house right now, mainly wall decor for my living room, so stay tuned for some more pics to come... Hopefully soon!!:)

Please help...

I need opinions from all my crafty bloggy friends who have such good taste:)

Okay, so I have this frame...

I want to make either a chalkboard to put in it, or a sillouette of Evan.

It will hang on this wall above this couch.

My question is...

Should I paint it more white or leave it as it is?????


Tell me watcha think!:)

Oh and this is my inspiration photo for this wall, I'm going to try to do something similar to this.



Hmmm.... Now that I look at this again I'm leaning more towards painting it white... Ack! Help! I could sit here and go back & forth all day!
