My new/old dresser ~

Happy Friday everyone ;-)

I thought I would share with you pictures of my new old dresser.  Mr. Vintage picked this dresser up at a yard sale for $25.00 and ofcourse, I fell in LOVE with it... It did not look like this before (I forgot to take pictures), but now that I added a coat of paint and shabbied her up ~ sigh ~ LOVE





I just love the mirror, the ginger breading and the shelf.  I picked up the oil lamps at a treasure hunt last year for $10.00.

Hey Mindy are you still  napping?  What are we going to do today?


I'm playing with my squirrel mommy ~ Later....

Have a wonderful day ~

(((Hugs))) xo

    Wow! Mr. Vintage has a good eye for a nice piece of furniture! That looks fantastic! I loooooove the shelf under the mirror! You did a great job painting it. It looks beautiful against the wall color, too. Well I need to get a squirrel for our Mr. J. He goes nuts when he sees them in the yard. I can just imagine what fun he'd have with a stuffed one! hahaha Have a wonderful weekend!... Donna

    Now that old dresser has a new life with many years ahead. Wish the human body could get a makeover like that. Oh, I guess we can, it's called plastic surgery.

    Super find! Is the mirror and shelf one piece? Does the mirror flip? It looks as if there is space on the top and bottom of the mirror. Love it!

    She's lovely. The detail across the top is beautiful, and the lamps set it off nicely.
