Alexandra's Dresser

remember alexandra's room. well, i painted a dresser for her also.
problem: love that dresser, but not that finish
solution: refinish the dresser with colors from the mood board

before

after
this piece is much cuter in alexandra's actual room(rather than in my studio), but you get the idea. alexandra also has bubble gum pink, crystal knobs installed on the dresser(not seen in this pic).

 the details are what make a hand painted piece special, notice the slightly distressed edges and transition areas...
it's both economical and sentimental to re-purpose an existing piece. this changing table will have many a memory between big bro and lil sis!
bright white and rich pink will always have a soft spot in my heart!


ps if i had permission, i'd post a pic of the little alexandra right here. think a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e!
