Before and after French Provincial

Sometimes on these 70's dressers you'll find that the molding is actually plastic

I much prefer the wood variety - snob that I am - even though I'm slathering

them in paint !!!

So the first thing I did was paint in between all those " criss crosses " as well as the 4 flowers

in each corner with black craft paint - so there would be some contrast in the details

if you look at the photo above you can barely tell it exists even

 I wasn't overly careful at this stage as  you can see because you really want

to be sure to get " in " those lines

It can all be fixed up once the white goes over it

and here's how it looks once a coat of white covers everything

much better, don't you think?

I did the same thing to the drawers

isn't it amazing what white paint can do?

The interior is painted a baby blue

What's new pussycat?

( does anyone else see a cat's face on this? ) 

 her and her pussycat eyes

woah woah

 Sometimes you have to work with what you have

and I really do believe that anything can look better

Even 70's furniture with plastic molding

that looks like a cat when you squint your eyes

Cats DO NOT belong in landfills either

Have a good one!

Partying with!!!
