Hard to believe summer is over and it is September! I LOVE summer and I am always sad when it ends. I got so many projects done these past few months. I had a loooooong list and I managed to cross off almost everything.
Remember this dresser? I found it at the Elkhorn Flea Market for $30.00! It was in great shape. It was the perfect size for our guest room.
I decided to have some fun with this piece and use two colors. I usually like to play it safe with one but wanted to do something different. I love how the ASCP paint colors work so well with each other. I chose Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Old White & Chateau Gray. I had both these colors and knew they would work with the room.

| I painted the drawers the Chateau Gray and the rest of the dresser in Old White. I wanted to reuse the original hardware so I removed it and cleaned it up well. After two coats of ASCP I used a coat of clear wax and added a bit of dark wax. |

| **On a side note....When you buy an antique piece of furniture you never know what you may find. This old sleeping cap was stuck behind one of the drawers!** |
Here is the dresser all painted and in place. I loved how it turned out and for $30.00 I love it even more!
The guest room is now done! I will post pictures soon! :)
