Since my sweet husband is away in Afghanistan, I decided to occupy myself on Valentines weekend by re-finishing a dresser, mirror and lamp I purchased at a local garage sale.
After much sanding, applying primer 4 times, and painting the entire set white 3 times...the final design emerged. I created a "dollhouse" theme, with detailed painting on all side of the dresser. I choose pink, green, purple and a bit of blue for the color scheme--colors I already had in my paint stash for crafting.
The mirror was the hardest, as it was not purchased with the dresser, and I wanted it to come out like it was part of a matched set. I bought a couple of premade pieces of "Crown Molding" from Home Depot--glued them on, and painted everything together. I really love the way it came out, and Aimee is so happy with the results.
