I have finally conquered my fear of repurposing old furniture. I have always wanted to try my hand at it but I’m not one to do something unless I know it will turn out well. So this summer, it finally happened. I got the gumption and dug in.
Last year my husband and I bought new bedroom furniture Love it!! It’s a beautiful dark wood with just a hint of red. My poor vanity stuck out like a sore thumb in its oak skin. So I painted it with black paint to give it a facelift. However, the final touch is nothing short of a match made in heaven. My sister and I are auction junkies and typically buy things that will be used for something later. She had this old chair in her garage. All it needed was a good rub with sandpaper, a coat of black paint and a new cushion.
Yeah, I’m happy with the new look.
Nice job Leslie. I, too , just tackled a furniture redo for the first time. It isn’t perfect but I love it just the same. 🙂 So happy your project worked out so well for you! Thanks for sharing!
