Hello everyone! I just starting publishing my work hoping that it would help my husband and I raise money for medical expenses! We are realizing that starting a family is going to be very different from what we originally anticipated. I know that the Lord is going to be faithful (He ALWAYS is) to help provide the funding we need in order to go forward with building our family. I am thankful for all of the support that friends and family have given us. Thank you for taking time to visit my blog! Please contact me with questions, projects, or if you want to purchase any of my projects at refinishedfurnishings@gmail.com

Yellow Dresser

This dresser is almost finished. I'm just waiting for new hardware to put back on the drawers. This yellow dresser is going to go in the same room as the teal headboard/footboard that I posted earlier. I can't wait to show you the last piece that goes with the set! I'm working on it this week! Here are some of the pictures from this project from yesterday.

Here is the "before picture."
I had to do some sanding on this piece to try to get the "smoke smell" out of the piece as well as sand down some of the older paint "drip spots."

Here it is sanded down.

After I sanded it down I wiped it down really well.
English Yellow, meets old yucky color :~)
Here is the chest of drawers after one coat. I used two coats because it was fairly light after just one coat.

Here are the drawers sanded and painted with one coat of English Yellow Chalk Paint.
Before and After - (hardware is on the way and I will post a picture of the final piece later).
