I have yet to get the pulls so for now these will do. I was at Anthropologie this weekend and NADA ENCHILADA! So I said, GET WITH IT CHICK! I bought some silver paint and bammm ready for use. It is a Peek-a-boo glossy gum drop.
I DID THAT!
And the shine on this piece is SICK! The wipe on poly was it jack.
Thanks again to everyone that helped me with this. I feel like I can do anything now. I even stopped by a friends to help her get her desk going. She moves like molasses, called me bossy, but wants me to come finish it. I enjoy the after so much, I think I just might. Someone check my temperature. No…As I mentioned I had one hell of a work week last week, and she really helped me get through it while on the job. If your reading this!
THANKS BAM!
*If anyone knows of an online store that sells knobs at a great price, do tell please.

FIRST!
Tam I luv the desk it looks yummy! Take it as a compliment that the friend wants you to help. By the looks of this dresser I can see why.
Oh my gosh it looks soooo good! And I love the way the pulls look!
Very good! This is beautiful!
Tam - great work. Once you see you can make something what you want for yourself, it's hard to buy new again. Hey, Horchow has this SUNburst (not starburst) for 30% off with free shipping today. Will be $139. I think it's hot! I'm going over there at lunch today and will check the chip and dent fo you. http://www.horchow.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=cprod9720019&parentId=cat11350734&masterId=cat000092&index=15&cmCat=cat000000cat000089cat000092cat11350734
Wow! Looks great! Would you mind sharing your steps and products? I've got a few pieces I need to get to work on but am not sure where to start.
Looks great!! Can't wait to see the whole room.
This is a beautifull make over!

Nice job!
Wonderful job!!!! It looks fantastic!!!! I love knobs from Hobby Lobby.
this is awesome!
I love it Tam, and I have to say, I like the drawer pulls. Great job!
PERFECTION! I love those handles, I'd keep them and maybe paint them black, or some funky color or jutst leave the gold -- it looks elelgant and warms up the color..
Just my opinion
GREAT job!!!
It looks amazing, Tam!
loves it!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on a job well done. So I need to know the brand of poly you used. Any tips or tricks. I just finished my 2nd dressert that looks similar but longer and it needs some shine.

Oooh, great job Tam!! Do your thing, lady. I know your daughter is soo pleased.
Hello,
I am glad I came across your blog, it's great and I have really enjoyed it!
Please come and visit my fashion blog too.
I hope to see you soon.
EEEk, T! This is stunning! I'm happy it looks so fab for you! Gerat work, girl. : )
Omg!!!!!!! I am SOOOOO impressed! I have a whole set my grandmother bought for my daughter from the thrift store (she is a thrift store junkie!!) and it has been sitting in our attic for the longest. I love the look just hate the color. I need to go back and see previous posts because this is amazing! Hopefully this will be a Spring/Summer project for me. I will probably need to ask you a few questions, lol. I hope you don't mind.

It's gorgeous! Makes me want to paint my dresser... another project to add to the list!
The dresser looks sweet. I started painting furniture a couple years ago. It's addictive. Now my stuff is all crazy patterns and stuff but I have fun with it. When I need knobs I go to myknobs.com Don't let the front page fool you. They have some really unique things and you can tweak your search by color.
Love your stuff. Thanks for sharing.
FREAKIN' AWESOME, TAM!!
It's gorgeous! I'm on a desk hunt now myself. I must do this. You're such an inspiration.
You did a great job and the pulls look great. The dresser looks amazing in front of that wall color. Gorgeous!
OMG! that's gorgeous! u just inspired me to re-use old furniture :)

Wow Tam! This looks GREAT and quite beautiful, might I say. I have got to get you to hook me up! Lol! I'm willing to pay! Honestly, this dresser looks as if you just purchased it and paid good money for it!
