I've been looking for a dresser for ages. Ebay, car boot sales, Freegle, Freecycle and even real shops (which tells you how desperate I've been). And finally, finally this week a lovely lady offered a pine dresser on Freegle. I jumped at the chance and sent her a very polite if somewhat desperate email, detailing my plans to shabby it up for my china collection. And I got it! Woo Hoo!
The Big Man was despatched to collect the dresser and on Tuesday evening I became the proud owner of a pine dresser. It's currently sitting in two halves in the living room and in the hall.
After many evenings of debate with the Big Man, I've decided to paint the dresser with Annie Sloan's Chalk paint in Old White. Once painted I think I'll decoupage some wall paper on to it somewhere, to give it some more life.
I finally started painting it yesterday morning, but didn't get very far. Shabby dresser transformation to follow...
Looking forward to seeing it in all its makeover glory.....you consulted DH? Mine would look horrified if I did that!!!
