For Sale: White Washed Dresser with Attached Chalk Board

This summer I bought a dresser online while we were away on vacation. I have to admit, my heart dropped a little when I eventually picked it up. The poor little thing just looked so pathetic in person! Lol!

The dresser sat in our garage for over a month while I pondered what to do with it. 

I finally decided my best option was to dismantle it like a piece of equipment 

and use it for parts.

The mirror could be a chalkboard, the drawers under the bed storage, etc.  

I started by taking the broken mirror out and replacing it with a chalk board

I made with a piece of 1/4" masonite and Rust-Oleum Chalk Board paint.

Then I started stripping the paint off the drawers. 

About half way through the process a new idea hit me. 

Go white washed beachy! 

I quickly switched gears and am so thankful I did.

Here's the final product:

What'cha think?

 Yeah...

I     LOVE     IT     !!!

The black chalk board and waxed white washed wood

look great against the Annie Sloan Pure White Chalk Paint. 

I added faux mercury glass knobs for a little sparkle.

They're a great contrast to the rustic wood patina.

Whether it's placed in an entryway... 

a bedroom...

or a porch...

 this one of a kind piece will attract a lot of attention in your home.

 I'm selling the piece for $200 - SOLD.
 Let me know if you are interested in purchasing it. 

Oh and before I forget...
