New Loves...

I have found two new things I love.

1-The Classifieds
and
2-spray paint
Mix these together & you have cute/cheap furniture!

Here are a few projects we finished up this summer....
I needed a dresser/changing table for Sophie's room.

I found this dresser on KSL classifieds for 20 bucks. It is definitely older, but it was just the size & style I was looking for.
I was going to stain it, but that didn't work. So we just spray painted it a dark brown color. Then we lightly sanded & sprayed on a Polycrylic spray to protect it.
The color matched her other furniture perfectly.

It was just the size I needed & was such a cute shape.

Older furniture always has more detail.

It's working great as a changing table for now!

After this worked out so well. I found another great piece for 20 bucks!

This one looked awful, but it was so unique. I loved that it had cupboards & drawers.

We sanded this a little and wiped on this liquid that claims there is no need to sand. We had to spray a few coats of primer...it had some red & black paint showing through.

Then we spray painted it white.

We used the original hardware, I just sprayed it a bronze color.


  I love the legs on this piece. I love the older furniture because once again, it has more detail.

I just finished a table for my hallway, nightstands & another piece for my bedroom. I'll show pictures soon.

I'm now searching for a desk for Zack & Tyler's room.
