A LOOK A LIKE



Like most of you, we are preparing for the last week of school. This week was my littlest baby girls last week of preschool and my oldest gets out next week. We have had parties and tests and projects and I have had little time to paint. I have 3 dressers, some mirrors, more lamps and chairs in my studio ready for a makeover. I am itching to test the waters on some new finishes.

A few days ago I got an email from a reader, Kim Alter. She had recently found a vanity dresser from a thrift store very similar to a dresser that I had just re done. She got a much better deal than I did..... She found this vanity for forty dollars! I paid 100 for mine.  I never find those deals!



Yesterday she proudly emailed me the finished product and it was too beautiful not to share.
Didn't she do an amazing job? I absolutely love these color combinations.



Here is the dresser that I created that became the inspiration. 



Thank you Kimberly for sharing this with me! You did a fantastic job!

The Red Balloon Sale is this Saturday, May 19th, at Homewood Antiques and Marketplace. I will have many red balloon deals in my booth! I hope you have a chance to make it!

    Great job Kimberly and awesome find! I like your soft color choices. I can definitely see why Kelli's was the inspiration piece. They are both beautiful!
