Good Morning everyone!

Another before and  after................finished last night

french provincial, 70's, vintage, before,

I Sprainted the pulls for contrast

SPRAINTED

To Spray Paint.........
e.g. He sprainted his bike.....................& she sprainted the pulls for a dresser redo

Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, French Provincial, Painted dresser,

In this photo you can see how shiny a surface you can get with the ASCP wax just by buffing

ASCP, Paris Grey, French Provincial, Vintage, dresser,Painted

Those curves!  Those legs!  That Frenchiness!  I painted out the trim on the top in white to
" accentuate the positive "
What else could I name her but Brigitte ( as in Bardot )
She is definitely the Brigitte Bardot of dressers............................

Don't you see the similarities?


Ok - I was a little shy to admit this - but that's not Brigitte - that's actually me - I had John take the photo last night - I'm in my painting clothes as you can see .....................

John says - What are you giggling about now? ( we share an office - and he's over my shoulder like a hawk sometimes - it's very hard to blog with a hawk over your shoulder )
Suzan says - I put a photo of Brigitte Bardot on my post and said it was me
John says - You'd better put a disclaimer on that - you can get in trouble for that

BWWWAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH - Suzan says - Do you think anyone would believe that was me in the photo?
John says - It doesn't matter - you're claiming to be someone you're not - there's laws about that

Talk about taking a fun moment - and dumping a can of paint all over it..................ok ok - I'll show you a real photo of me then.


Talk soon!
Much love,

Disclaimer:  I am neither a Brigitte Bardot NOR a Bo Derek
I'm just a Suzan ( from Simply Vintageous )

Thanks so much to the following ladies for featuring Brigitte!  I'm beyond flattered and thrilled ;)
