Vanity

I picked up this mess of a vanity at my local DI for $10, and bought the chair at a garage sale for $10 a couple months ago.

Before


I posted the picture of the vanity on my Facebook page to get opinions on color. If I am going to sell something, and am stumped on color, I always reach out to my peeps for an opinion. What can I say, they have great taste :) Any who, my cousin asked me if I could do it up custom for her to match her new bedset. 

I got to spend some quality time in Hobby Lobby's knob section, and fabric section searching for just the perfect things. I absolutely love doing custom pieces for people I know well, because I can add more personality and spunk into.  This particular cousin I did the piece for, has, A LOT of spunk, so this was fun. 


Had to add the little surprise pop of color on the drawer.

New seat cushion with fabric covered buttons.

It's amazing what a little paint and time will do.

This set made me want to paint every piece of furniture I own matte black. No lie. It's a problem, but you know you did a good job when you feel that way.
