Before and After

I have looked at this dresser for months now and envisioned it white. Not only the dresser but many white ideas for our bedroom. With this weeks illness I have not been able to continue the makeover. I plan to as soon as we are feeling better. So what do you think? You like?

I like it! I generally like lighter color furniture, because they brighten up the room more. :)

Have a good weekend. Feel better.

I have to be honest here. As a fan of dark wood, I really love the dresser in the before picture more. Look at that beautiful wood!

BUT, I also can appreciate the freshness and brightness of a few coats of white paint. My dining room was transformed when we repainted our chairs and table! To each her own, right?

I am glad that it makes you happy! :)
