All done. At least for now. I love the black pulls. I think it makes the piece more edgy. So as of now, this dresser is complete. I did a great job I think. The paint looks smooth, and the poly has this dresser shining like it was covered in Vaseline. I applied two coats.
I thought this would be a great message for her everyday.. (photo looks red. Its not)
I love these butterflies…By Umbra for Target
Stay tuned…I am having major fun with this room. I realized that this room does not have to be to serious. She (my daughter) is still a child. It's meant to be fun, young, and stylish.
XOXOX,

I love it. So when are you going to come and decorate my house? :)
What is your secret for painting? I used the Heirloom white spray like you used on your last dresser project and I don't think it came out even at all. Back to square one. I even bought the attachment to put on the spray can and it made it worse...ugh.
Can't wait to see the finished look! Such a fresh palette!
I see you got some art installation on the ceiling going on. I like that.
Diggin the bright colors! Looks like a very fun and magical space :)
What brand of poly did you use? This looks fabulous. I love the shine. I never get results like this! :-)
lol @ the vaseline . . . that's exactly what it looks like, too! i love me some gloss.
I want that "Keep Calm" sign.... where did you get it?
You did do great, girl!
This looks great! I am thinking about how to do my stepdaugther's room. She wants purple and black. We are thinking more lavendar with black accents. A friend and I were brainstorming on Friday and thought of doing lavender with a band in the middle of the wall. We also looked at some of the stencil wording. We found a cute girlie comforter on jcpenny.com, but we are still thinking:) You are an inspiration!
Wow what a difference! Her room is turning out wonderful.
Girl that dresser is HOT! I only used one coat of poly and now I'm gonna do another. your doing great with the room hun!
Looking great! I cannot wait to see the end result.
