Wooden Dresser Painted Green; Furniture Redo

03 October 2010

I really love the way this dresser piece turned out after Kathleen at Between Blue and Yellow painted it a soft gray-green. Perfect!

As promised here is the ginormous piece I have been working on this week. This was a fun dresser, lots of little details and I love the color I mixed. It's kind of a green/gray color mixed from various paints I had laying around.

Here is the before

After

I used some old hardware from another piece, and spray painted it oil rubbed bronze. Sanded and stained the top dark walnut. Distressed the edges and rubbed in a dark glaze.

So there you have it, my hard work for all to see. I hope you enjoy it!

Don't you think she did a GREAT job!

I love the way it looks now!
