Why I Adore all that is Vintage!

Here is my Vintage Dresser Re-Finishing Job. My heart just skips a beat with these types of pieces. The carved bottom the little ledge in the middle  all of it , is just so charming. I wasn't so big on those handles-while cute, I wanted some that were more vintage and went with the style of dresser. And while the top handles are slightly bigger than bottom- it was all that i had, and of course i think the mix match adds to the shabby style.
Just love It!

    Yes, that is so very lovely! I also love that style and the comfy easiness it exudes.

    These pieces are so unique. You're right about the drawer pulls....the ones on the top actually compliment those on the bottom half. You did a wonderful job on this redo; bravo!

    It looks fantastic. Until you said something, I hadn't noticed the difference in the handle sizes. The uniform colour disguises it well.

    I love it. You must have so much fun going to "work". But I know there's a lot of background paper work and accounting stuff that's not so fun, so I'm not really jealous, but I am envious. Love your blog.

    What a transformation...the dresser is so pretty. I like that it has the two different sized handles as I think it adds interest. (Where do you get those type of handles)? By the way your shop looks amazing, clearly you have wonderful taste and great style. I would be a frequent visitor if I lived nearby. Unfortunately, I don't so I am going to have to settle on visiting your blog. :)
