White Makeover

I was taking pictures of this sweet little vanity for my Etsy Shop and
thought I would share it here with you all.  I actually refinished it last 
summer before I started blogging, therefore, there are no "before"

pictures, but there are several "in process" pictures.

When I found this vanity at a yard sale, the wood was dark and lacking 
personality.   All it needed was a little TLC.

I took all the pieces apart in my back yard and primed it using my new paint sprayer. 

Even though my yard is not in the best shape here, that

grass sure looks nice and green right about now.

 Next, I sprayed it with two to three coats of Dove White

Benjamin Moore paint and put everything back together again.To give it a little more personality, I applied two complimentary wood applique pieces to the drawer and added a wooden knob.

 I also lined the inside of the drawer with scrapbook  paper

to dress it up and give it a new, clean feel.

To cushion the seat a little more, I added an extra layer of thin foam and

polyester batting and then covered it with this soft pastel mint linen fabric.

 I think I'm jealous ~ her cabriole legs are more shapely than mine. 
Lastly, I lightly distressed everything to create the shabby look that I love. 
I'm hoping eventually some mother will fall in love with it and

give her daughter the perfect place to pamper herself.  I think

it needs a little girl to love it again.
