Hope everyone had a great weekend and enjoyed the extra hour of daylight. I spent a good part of the weekend hanging in my garage with my ipod stuck in my ear, completely immersed in fixing and painting this CL find. There is no place else that I'd rather be, well maybe on a beach in the Caribbean w/ a salted rim margarita in hand. Who am I kidding? But I do love painting something that's seen better days and making it happy and new again. It just makes me happy :)

Major veneer issues that were fixed with Quik Wood...love this stuff! |
It seems I didn't take any pics while painting...guess I got caught up in the moment. Another problem I encountered was the mirror was missing from the dresser leaving behind holes on the surface where the mirror should be attached.
This is what I did to take care of the problem...

| I bought a piece of moulding at HD that was wide enough to cover the holes and then had the HD guy cut it to size. |

| I sprayed it Krylons Dark Walnut and cleaned up the original pulls w/ the same. When it was dry, I painted it to match the dresser and distressed it to show some of the walnut spray paint. Here it is all finished w/ a stunning backdrop of my dirty garage.
