I've been working very hard lately, trying to get all of the last details finished on this baby girl's room! It just seems never ending... but that's clearly my own fault. :)
So a few things to share..
Dresser/Changing Table
We scored this dresser off of Craigslist, oh, about 4 or 5 months ago.. maybe even longer. I knew I could refinish it and make it into what we needed. It just took me a while! It's been finished for a long time, just hadn't made it's blog debut until now!
Before:
After:
I sanded her all down, mixed up my own paint color with paint I had on hand in the garage, then distressed it and used a glaze to get the look I wanted. I'm really pleased with how it turned out!
I switched out the hardware with cheap pulls I found at Hobby Lobby and then spray painted.
I lined the drawers with some grass cloth wallpaper that I found at Goodwill.
$3 for an enormous roll!
My total cost for this dresser re-do was about $65-70. Not bad!
Another sneak peek..
I made these tissue paper poufs to hang above the crib as Tiny Dancer's mobile! I was hoping to incorporate a few more colors, but I looked everywhere trying to find just the right colors.
And by everywhere, I mean I looked all 3 times I was at Target this week.
Oh I wish you had a name for that color! It's great! The art on the wall is too pretty too, have you already posted about that? I'd love to see a close up.
