Dresser Repurpose


I traded dressers with my sister-in-law and got this way cool one. She's the one who put chalkboard paint on the drawer fronts (using spraypaint - sounds easy!) - genius idea. Functional and fun. This is now in my entryway and has solved the problem of piles of shoes and gloves. Chalkboard paint has endless possiblities.

  6. Wow.... I am totally thinking I may have to copy that! Copying is the best form of flattery, right?????? I repaint furniture to sell.... and that WOULD sell!

    Stop by my painting blog and say hello sometime!
