Remember this cutie before?
This is an antique tall chest, or dresser, painted in a cozy coral chalk paint then clear waxed for protection. I added a raised stencil on the fronts of three drawers and subtly applied dark wax for just a hint of age. The original pulls are painted in a soft silver which set strikingly against the warm coral. It enhances the dresser's fine detail and draws out the piece's crafted elegance. I am in love with this color and want to use it on everything. I get like that with colors. You may see color clusters. Now available to grace any area of your home. Remember this cutie before?

Wow! There are so many things to love about this dresser, I don't even know where to start! I love the color, the raised stencil, the subtle aging around the raised stencil and the hardware! The stencils look like they've been there forever, I had to do a double take before I realized they weren't on there before the transformation! Anyways... fantastic project!
