Faux Flower Power





I keep seeing these faux flower designs and I'm thinking I need to do a little DIY. I just need to decide what to make though...I love the peace sign and the heart and how cute is Alyssa's monogram?!

DIY: Bright Red Dresser


DIY Painted Dresser....Check off the To Do List.

Step 1: Find the furniture! 

Step 2: Sand it down. 
Step 2.25: Wipe down with a Tack Cloth. 
Step 2.5: Prime it (sorry no pic!)
Step 2.75: Wait for it to dry!

Step 3: I first tried spray paint. 
Step 3.5: Didn't like outcome--painted it. 

Step 4: Enjoy your work! 


Step 5: Add Accessories! 


Yay! I am finally done with this project and ready for the next. This dresser was actually part of my grandparents bedroom set. The other piece went to my sister-in-laws for her to paint too! When I first saw this piece I realized 1.) its not getting used 2.) LOVE the shape 3.) I want it! My parents gave me the okay and off I went. My dad wasn't too happy at first with my choice of color, but I think he loves it seeing how he painted our new front door red! Love when that happens ;) There were more steps involved than I had anticipated, but I am so happy with the end result so it was all worth it! -M
