I finally finished the pink dresser...
I feared it would be too "frou frou"
in pink and white...
So I distressed with a heavy hand
and also went heavy with the dark wax
Don't you love the crackle along the edge
with a bit of pink showing through?
The hardware is original
Painting it seemed too "precious"
and I think the patina on the metal
is a nice contradiction
to the girly choice of color
It's such a pretty, curvy dresser...
I had a VERY hard time not painting
Grey or Coco...
I even considered white...
I sanded the top to bare wood
and stained it dark, rich brown
I swear, she's smiling!
LOVE it...I need something smaller...and some of the smaller I need bigger! I love your work.
