if you paint it, it will come

Well it snowed for about 3 minutes here this winter and I have decided that if I paint a spring dresser spring will come. 
     Im tired of the gloom so here is my farm style spring dresser.  
This started out as a cheap sad yard sale find but with all furniture I saw its potential.  


This the before picture with an odd formica top that just had to go!


And after- I built a new top for it using old weathered barn wood

  2. SPRING COME (but not too quickly because I wanna see MORE pieces from Emily, trying to tempt you!)

    Adorable redo, Gal!

  3. As soon as I saw this thumbnail, I knew this was your! Love it, as usual. Aren't you a clever cookie for removing the table top??!!?? I'll have to remember that.

    Sorry I have been MIA, need to get caught up on your blog post.

    XoXo,
