| The Dresser Before |
My husband likes to pick up junk off the side of the road. It use to be metal, and he'd take it to the scrap yard for a few dollars. Now it's furniture. He's convinced I can transform and sell anything he finds. I have to give him credit, because he's usually right. Well the other day this is what he picked up. I thought it was butt ugly, and didn't want anything to do with it. But, it was taking up room in our garage, so I finally committed to it. I'm glad I did, because I love the way it turned out and decided to keep it.

| The Dresser After |
I've been slowly transforming our loft into a guest bedroom. I found this awesome vintage-inspired duvet cover at Ikea for$15, and decided that would be my 'jumping off' point. (yes, I've been watching faaarrr too much Sarah Richardson!) The teal colour matches the duvet quite nicely. I primed it with some of my leftover 'cover stain', painted it Martha Stewart's 'Artisan Well', and finished it in a satin polyurathane. Gooorrrrgeous.
I spray painted the handles in a Rustoleum gloss white. I think they look pretty darn cute against the light teal!
