A couple of months ago my husband brought a dresser home for me. A very nice gesture on his part. (Thank you husband.) Thing is, it was painted with a glossy black enamel. Which can also be spelled N-I-G-H-T-M-A-R-E!
To make the job a wee bit easier, I popped off the wood applique.
I sanded it and took a break from it (as in weeks) – just one of those kind of projects. Then I got a call the day before our big sale last week that a vanity had sold and I needed something new to bring in. One of those “Oh crap!” calls! Less than 24 hours before the sale!
Somehow we manage! Installed in the shop in time!
Applique replaced with a vintage brooch.
Ta-da!

It looks so much better in white. I seem to like black accessories but prefer white furniture pieces.
Sounds like you work well under pressure.
Really? You're a pro at this, girl!

Thanks for visiting and leaving such a sweet comment about my Ruffled Pillow Tutorial. Your dresser turned out wonderful. It's amazing how the color change makes it look totally different. Adding the brooch was a great idea.
Have a Nice Day,
Suzanne
