Hydrangea Dresser

This dresser has been sitting in the corner of the living room waiting for a second coat of paint and a waxed paper transfer of hydrangeas.

On a slightly cooler morning last week I finally dragged it out into the driveway and finished it. 

Way back numerous weeks ago it was a plain Jane MCM dresser.

Blah brown.

It was painted with one coat of Bermuda Sand.

Then I got distracted by other projects and left it to languish.

No one likes a languishing dresser.

So I put on my big girl's panties and went to work.

One more coat of Bermuda Sand.

Look at the atomic legs on her!

Guess what?

No distressing.

That's right.

I did not distress this dresser.

I used waxed paper to print out blue hydrangeas.

See the method HERE .

I used my finger while the ink was wet and softened the colors.






Used a distressed ink dauber in blue to fill in.

I wanted Monet.

I think I got Monet!

 Soft and subtle.



















I only did the top drawer.

Did not want too much of a good thing.














The Hydrangea Dresser can be purchased in Booth C-23 at Riverfront Antique Mall in North Augusta, South Carolina.



Maybe I should have created water lilies.
