*Holly Paint*


This little dresser was found at the end of a driveway with a "FREE" sign on it...my Aunt found it and threw it in the back of her car...Thank you Aunt Peg!


It was in need of much work and love...the back had a hole in it and the knobs were mismatched.
So I sanded, primed and painted it a light turquoise. Then I added White Birch Branch handles (cut from a Friends tree) to add a little charm to the dresser. It turned out very cute...if I do say so myself! It will be at The Makers' Market on September 26th at Silva's Sheldon Inn for a very reasonable price!
