Enter dressers.
You guys, these puppies are so versatile. And the storage. Shut your mouth. I have literally been dreaming of all of the uses and perfect places for my newest obsession. Cut to the scene of my half-finished upholstered chair. Ooopsies. I am hoping in the next couple of weeks to wrap up that project. Hence the need to line up my next project. Joel is a lucky man, no? This weekend we have a dinner and a movie date planned and I've slipped in a pre-date plans....Salvation Army and the ReUse store. What, what! (Amy Poehler style in Baby Mama - you know what scene I'm talking about).
Let me show you some of the dressers I'm drooling over and that are inspiring me to take up a new project. These are all re-dos from bloggers. They are so good. I actually prefer their custom looks over store-bought fresh that I've check out online.
I just love the pulls and the office organizer slots on this one. The top drawers add interest with their wood shape detail.
Basically everything Centsationalgirl does is beautiful and perfect. I love that she kept the original pulls and hardware. It turned out beautiful, didn't it?
Another re-do by Life In The Fun Lane, so much love. I love the warm and neutral color.
These are some of the beautiful dressers I've recently become obsessed with. As you can see none are necessarily bedroom dressers - I am winning Joel over on this idea. I love how a beautiful and solid piece can anchor a room with its presence. Clearly, light and white-neutral is my current obsession. I cannot wait to check out thrift stores this weekend!
What about you? Am I the only weirdo, or are you all drooling over a new piece of furniture or itching for a new DIY?
You're not the only dresser weirdo. I love them, too!! You should see the two I painted in contrasting greens... beautiful! And I agree, very practical!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that Leslie! Also, I want to see pictures. :)
DeleteI have been redoing dressers/buffets/ hutches, etc since I moved into my house... I am up to 4 but I keep them natural... however if I was not such a stained wood junky I definitally say painting is the way to go!!!! I just need to find a better suplier for my obsession pluas a bigger hosue to put them all in.
