Bright Blue Beauty

So this piece is bright.

Really bright. But I love it!

It started off as a dingy craigslist find.

I primed it and gave it a coat of this blue from a gallon of oops paint. Yes. a gallon. Not sure what I'm going to do with the leftovers....

I sprayed the handles with Krylon's white spraypaint and then gave them a coat of the spray poly.
I used some sandpaper to rough up the edges of the drawers.

Then I wiped on some tobacco glaze.

I finished it all off with a coat of polycrylic.


Is it too bright?

It's not for sale in the store....I'm saving this for something special. You'll just have to wait and see!

I'll leave you with the Before Meets After
