Finished!!
























I am sooooo excited! I finally finished. It's my first furniture re-do. I took this old, pukey green dresser, and transformed it into something that I absolutely love.

While I know it has flaws, quite a few actually, I did it. I used spray paint and modge podge and . . . voila!

























How about that color huh? I really liked the furniture but NOT the color. I know, I know, there was a time when this was the in thing, right?
























This is my finished project, (I really did just finish, that's why it's still in the basement) My only regret is that you can't really see the material that I put behind the baskets. But don't worry, I am going to show you, because I love it! (The material is where the modge podge came in.) I wish you could see it better, but hey, this is my first time so be gentle.
