Tickle Me Turquoise!

I was in search for a decent tall-boy dresser that had a little something more than pressed-wood, could make a statement while being practical, and possessed a feminine presence with a French Provincial twist. For $85, Cayman blue acrylic paint, white flat spray paint, and polyurethane I was pleased with the result.



Found this in my fave district of Little Ethiopia...a set designer's frequent stop and most reliant ally. It was beautiful and in good condition before, but lacked the excitement for someone who still wants to live in Barbie's Dream House.

Ah,much better, don't you think?




Here it  makes the corner pop in my bedroom with a white surrounding.




I tried to pose my bedroom furniture as if it were a set.  I had used the same Cayman blue on this night stand that I originally altered two years ago.  But this year it was revamped when I exchanged the knob for a professionally-bedazzled one from Anthropologie for $13 to glam it up. I know it was a lot for one knob, but it's just one of those little things that brightens my day. Besides, it properly accessorizes this flaunty character of a nightstand with these gorgeous-whistle provoking-Cabriole legs.




Enjoy the weekend!
xoxo.
