Another Gray Blue Dresser and the Fate of its Mirror

Yup, I've mixed up some blue gray again. I've had a lot of people inquire on Etsy about my other two dressers that had sold. So, this can not be a bad way to go, I'm thinking. Hoping this one hits the road quick.

Here it is drawers primed.
And look at that mirror, beautiful, right?

Sad thing though, it has some serious silver streaking. I knew it when I bought it but thought I'll just replace the mirror minus the bevel. How much can that possibly cost? Let's just say I had to pick my jaw up off the floor when the woman at the glass store told me the price.

With jaw back in place, I leave w/ mirror in hand. Driving home and brainstorming, it hits me...forgo the mirror. Not entirely, just for now. Plan B is paint the frame and chalkboard paint the mirror. And of course grab those awesome carvings off the base for a future project. Now I am feeling much better.

Still with me? 


Notice I changed the top drawer knobs. Since this isn't really gender specific, I decided to list it in my Etsy shop w/ either knob option and choice of fabric. One more masculine, the other feminine. Which do you prefer?

Love these knobs. Picked them up at Marshalls...4 for 10.00! 

Now let's hope this finds its way out of my garage ASAP. I am running out of room. Swore I'd stay away from the flea market today, yeah right!
