A day of projects

So I painted up the dresser, stripped the paint off of my sons desk, bought a sunburst with no mirror for $12 at Marshalls, primed the sunburst, and the rest is waiting in the wings.

(Don't be afraid, its only paint)

I had never used paint stripper before. This stuff will burn the hell out of your skin. I had on gloves and it damn near ate through the gloves.

But look at this with primer only. I know its missing the mirror, but we can still make this bad boy work somewhere in the house. Suggestions?

Here is a sneak peak at the color. The bottom is primed, and the top is the Heirloom White.

I plan on lightening the master up, and this is a start.
