It's Finished!

Today I was pretty much consumed with three pieces of furniture. I had these two pieces I was finishing up some loose ends. This console I'm thinking of keeping and maybe one day giving it to the boys to use as a desk.
When I bought this 3 drawer dresser, it had a rather large black mark on top of the dresser. But I wasn't the least bit worried because I wanted to paint the whole thing green and then I painted over the drawers with a navy blue. Once it was dry I got out the sander and started distressing it. I had leaps of fun with this and I know my mom would love the look of this dresser. I had to get new hardware pulls because the middle drawer was missing the drawer ring. So I bought some Martha Stewart pulls at Home Depot. I do like!
I bought this beauty only a week ago with a price tag of $10. Brandon sanded it yesterday and today I finished some of the last minute sanding. I primed, painted and polyurethane all in 12 hours. It's 9p.m. and I feel great. I got all this done in a days work.
