Can This Be Made Fabulous?
I finally found (actually the Husband spotted it first!) the perfect bedside table for the Husband. It needs a little TLC but should be fantastic when we're finished with it. Of course that means actually getting to work on it! I'm a horrible procrastinator and am hoping that by posting this I will be "encouraged" to get it done faster!! I have a selection of Krylon paints on the ready:
though I can't seem to decide which to use. The Husband likes the green (Celery) but I think it might be too minty when it's all done. The Almond is nice...and safe. It's probably what I would feel most comfortable using. Finally there is the Bahama Sea which is a great fresh blue that would be a great punch of color in the otherwise subdued palette of our bedroom. Decisions, decisions....
I also stopped by Anthropologie to check out the Rhino (sad to report a misguided crafts project for my purposes) and find some fab hardware. I came home with these options. So far my Sweet Husband is not a fan on any of these choices. Oh well, back to the drawing board!
Hopefully I'll have an update soon!

Can't wait to see!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the dresser just the way it is. If paint, I'd probably go for a stronger green, perhaps citrus. Have you tried Maine Cottage's spray paints? Oh, and I'd definitely use Anthro pulls, perhaps a black and white style?
ReplyDeleteI love the dresser the way it is too bit there are more than one too many wood pieces in the room already (bed, dresser, other side table, library table, etc) I haven't heard of Maine Cottage's paints before. I'm really looking forward to finding better color options! Thanks!
ReplyDeletesuch a great piece! I dont think you can go wrong
