Furniture Upcycle

I recently refinished a dresser for a friend of mine. She had a brown dresser and wanted to "perk" it up a bit so I painted the outside a creamy yellow color and the drawer fronts a burnt orange color. Once the paint was dry I took the sander to it and distressed it a bit. The color was not vintage enough for me so I took some brown paint and rubbed it over it to give it more depth. Once the paint was dry I glued vintage music sheets to the top and outside. I put poly all over the piece to finish it up. I love it and more importantly my friend loves her new dresser too!! Thanks Lynn for giving me a fun new project, keep'm comin!!
