I bought this dresser a couple of years ago at a neighbor's garage sale for $15 I think. I use it up in my craft room to hold all my fabric. It's a really nice dresser--really made well. I finally got around to fixing it up! I sanded it, primed it, and then painted it with some spring green paint that I got for free from Glidden a long time ago. I let Gabby pick out the paint because we were going to redo her room with some stripes or polka dots. Rather than paint, we opted to do vinyl, so I had this can sitting around. I wasn't sure how far it would go, so I made the legs of the dresser white. And when I was done painting the drawers, I blocked off a rectangle and painted it with chalkboard paint so that I could label the drawers. I love how it turned out! So bright now!
I'm Kristen and I am right about everything. At least that's what I tell my husband and kids.
