Orchid Dresser Makeover – Tuesday’s Treasures


Hi Friends!

It’s the week of Christmas!!! We are so excited to celebrate our Savior’s birth! I can’t wait to spend Christmas singing about Him, sharing gifts that reflect the gift we were given when God sent Jesus to earth, and enjoying our new home with my parents and brothers and their families. We’ll be hosting Christmas dinner this year!

Here’s our store hours over the next two weeks:

This past weekend we were able to go to Old Sturbridge Village. We’ve never gone to it before even though it is an easy drive! It was really great! They had people roasting chestnuts on an open fire (we tried them). Each house in the village had something special to teach us about. There was a horse drawn carriage. I would love to make it a yearly tradition for our family.

For this week’s furniture transformation, I wanted to share one that I enjoyed because I was able to freehand a design on the front. Jackie came to us with this dresser:

She loved this Fern Dresser that we recently did but really wanted orchids instead. She said I could paint it how I would like to. We sanded and stained the drawer fronts with a mixture of gray/brown stains. The outside of the dresser is painted with the color Navajo White by Benjamin Moore.  If you’d like to see how we paint furniture, check out our How to Paint Furniture post. We replaced all of the hardware as well.
