Kyla paints a dresser

This weekend something strange took over my mind and I decided I wanted to paint my dresser. It's a very old wooden dresser that my parents got at a thrift store in Madison 30 years ago. It is now mine and I got tired of the boring brown color.

So having no idea what I was doing I dumped out all the drawers onto my bedroom floor creating a 10 foot high pile, bought paint (oyster pearl), a brush, sandpaper, and voila!

I should have taken a 'before' picture, but it looks sooo much better now. Next up is searching for new handles for the drawers, I want something antique. I will also have to sort through that everest of clothes. I don't know how I fit so many in those drawers and I am afraid of what I might find.
