Retro Atlantis Blue Dresser – Tuesday’s Treasures

Hi friends! Can you believe it’s the 4th of July this week?? I always feel like the 4th of July is the half way point of the summer. I know it’s not really, for most it’s the official start of summer but in my mind I think summer’s nearly over when we hit the 4th of July.

This week John starts full time with me at FunCycled! I’m BEYOND excited about this change!! :)  Now in addition to furniture make-overs, we will offer interior home painting, color consultations and kitchen cabinet painting. If you’ve missed the post about the transitions, check it out now.  If you are interested in any of those options, please use our Contact Us form to reach out to us.

On to the furniture, shall we?? lol We’ve had this dresser on our Upcoming Projects page for a little while. It’s much larger than it looks and it was the other 1/2 of the Navy Number Dresser that we customized for Carly. This part of the set is going to a different family. Kerri reached out to me to see if the dresser would work for her daughters room. They came over with decor in hand and we picked a color that would best coordinate with the room.

Here’s the dresser before. Still in good shape, they just wanted a pop of color.

A pop of color they have!! The color is Benjamin Moore’s Atlantis Blue 768 and I glazed it after I painted it. We also painted the knobs with a hammered black spray paint.

I love how I was able to get the texture of this piece to almost look like leather. Just love it!!

I hope you all have a safe and a fun family filled 4th of July!! Please keep us in prayer as John joins me on this adventure. We need it!

Happy redesigns everyone,
Sarah
