Painted Dresser



I interrupt this program with important stuff: a few photos of a dresser I painted for my youngest son's bedroom.

I painted this a couple of years ago--yikes three years ago for my baby's nursery. It really took me under an hour to do it. I had a mix of blues and white and just painted away. I then added hundreds of dots for detail. Then, sponged the top with white. The dark of the wood actually shaded the top quite well under white paint. I sealed the top of the dresser with brush on varnish (which costs just a few dollars per bottle.)

I have a second dresser that needs painting and this is just the kind of inspiration I need to do so.
