UncategorizedThrifty Find Friday June 17, 2011It’s been a while since I did a Thrifty Find Friday here on the blog. Now that our life is starting to slow down a little, I think it’s time to revive it! I got this dressing table at an estate sale about a month ago and have been waiting for some time to work on it. It came with a large circular mirror attached, but we’ve gotten rid of that. It was literally as wide as the entire piece and looked a little odd. I’m going to find a smaller mirror to attach. I love the detail on the drawers: It also came with this great stool: I’m going to go with white paint for this piece. I think just pretty, clean white will look best in our bedroom. It is going to go in this corner of our room: I really think that white paint will pop against the wall color and the tan linen curtains. I’m going to paint the stool white as well and am looking for a cool fabric to recover the seat in. I can’t decide if I want to go with a pattern that would coordinate with the bedroom (maybe some yellow or gray?) or keep it monochromatic with a textured white. What do you guys think? Here it is all together: All white with a fun patterned seat, perhaps? Painting this piece is on our list for this weekend. I’m so excited to finally be getting to it. I have seen so many gorgeous dressing rooms out in blogland. Granted, this will just be a little dressing corner, but I am so excited about that! How fun to get ready each morning in a pretty and special place! I’ll be back next week with the after shots!
