Paint it black.

               BEFORE                                         &                                 AFTER
I've had this dresser for almost 2 years now...  You can read about it's original drab to fab here...DRESSER.

 We just recently painted the living room.
 Which I'll post about later. :)  And I was ready to redo the decor on the dresser.  I found wonderful inspiration of course from Pinterest.
 The burlap wreath I bought off ebay, and have LOVED ever since.  I just didn't know how I was going to use it.  Then I saw some wonderful ideas of hanging it with a mirror.  Well I didn't have a mirror... :(  but now worries, that's what the community swap is for on FB in my local area.  I put out an ISO on the swap group, and within an hour someone posted this lovely black mirror.
I paid $20 for it, and it was perfect for what I had in mind.
Still not "loving" the arrangement, especially with the new paint color.  I decided to paint the frame of the mirror silver, and the dresser a black gloss.


 It turned out great!
I'm sure I'll be changing some things up here and there on it, but for now it'll do. ;)
I bought the lamp shades at Walmart...I'm enjoying them.
 Everything else I already had.
 The white pitcher is from Target, and it's probably one of favorite things I have.
The chalkboard silver tray I made almost 4 years ago, and it's one of those I put away, and then bring back out.


 The burlap wreath will be fun to decorate according to the seasons.  :)

Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!
