THE big reveal!

WELL WELL WELL.....It is time! The dresser is all done, and personally I think Anthropology would sell it!
Okay so quick recap..go here to see the old one.
to catch you up after we scraped all that yucky stuff off, we sanded it.

then I put two coats of "springfield" on it.

full body shot picture if you will, I think you will..

next I took a block sander to all the corners and sides that I wanted to, I also to a nail and scraped down the top to give the stain something to grab hold of

and Here is the finished product with me in the mirror..HI!

a couple more close ups...

(We have two different types of knobs on them because I like the circles and Brent likes the rings) maybe after a year of looking at them one of us will lower our pride we will decide which one looks better.

I'm VERY happy with it, I think it will go perfect in our "New" room

...AND... for those of you who don't know I will be the big 27 in just a short 10 days. My Sweet friend, Michelle all the way in Cali sent me these mugs as a early bday present, (chelle, I'm drinking coffee in them, well one, right now!)

and there you have it! My first piece of "distressed" furniture...I think I'm addicted. $75 dollars for a dresser at goodwill, that you could probably buy at Nadeau for $1200...It's definitely got SOUL!
Have a great weekend!!
