Junk Room Redo

How long has it been since I've tackled a project?

I can't tell you when.

I bought this great chest for a bargain

at The Exchange, 

a darling little shop with painted furniture 

in a nearby town.

As I finished paying the layaway,

(yes, small towns still do that)

I wasn't sure if it was exactly what I wanted.

Ever do that???

It was heavily distressed 

and I tend to like my pieces

lightly distressed.

Soooo, I decided to paint the drawers

(the chest was all aqua),

and distress just like I like it. 

What you can't see is that some of the aqua

bled through

and I LOVE IT!

I bought the iron knobs at Hobby Lobby

which costed almost as much as the chest.

I think they are worth it!

I don't mind the top with a little more distressing.

I did get a deal on the frame, 

1/2 price!

I spotted a great comforter at 

T.J. Maxx. 

I hope to get it this weekend.

I'll feel like I'm getting somewhere 

with the junk room!

Happy Redoing,

Bonnie:)

Visit me again soon
