This one goes out to you Cassie!

Alright, I know I said I would have a few posts with valentine crafties but I didn't really finish them all until after vday and some still aren't complete :-( So lets just move long, okay?

Today I met Cassie over at her Salvation Army as she found a dresser that was perfect for a TV stand for my house. I'd show you a pic but its big and still in the car = ) As I was leaving she told me in a sweet way that I had better post my dresser I just completed and link to her party so here it is.


(sorry for the mini pic but a few weeks ago my computer suffered a virus and other things I don't understand now all the pics I saved are super small)

I picked it up for $20 at one of my fave thrift stores. I LOVE their prices! I don't think there has ever been anything I've wanted from there and felt it was overpriced. I had also recently picked up a great shade of yellow from the oops section.

Because Cassie had just finished a dresser like it, I followed her lead as far as prep. I sanded it down with my orbital and medium paper, put one coat of primer and two coats of paint and primer in one, topped with Minwax Polycrylic for protection. I also used oil primer for the hardware with a white enamel paint. And here it is after


 So of course I am linking up to POWW over at Primitive and Proper
as well as PoPP at Domestically Speaking
