Having a 2 year old means having a lot of toys. How a 2 year can accumulate so much junk is beyond me, but I blame it on the Mimi and Pop. I needed a place to neatly place my sweet Childs goodies since she likes playing in the living room. I knew that somewhere in the back of the attic was a potential beauty. So, my dear hubs drug it down the stairs for me.
The Junk:
Since I like my hands and fingers I asked my husband to cut a bottom for me, once I removed the two long drawers. Gave this sweet thang a good couple coats of paint, added some gold leafing to the edges, some awesome porcelain knobs, baskets for the baby girls collection of goods and ta da! We have a treasure!
I am a Mom-preneur. While raising two under two, I manage to have an overload of productive energy. I decided to start a business selling my designs after many request and compliments from my amazing friends and family. Watching my children grow has been an amazing journey. I have always been artistic and creative. With a background in art and interior design I am always looking for something new to design or decorate.
Custom handmade growth sticks, travel blankets, diaper bags, bibs and burp cloths.

Wow! I love it! Looks almost antique. Where'd you get the knobs?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Julie. I bought the knobs at Hobby Lobby (are there any other stores in this world?).
ReplyDeleteI think HL has great drawer pulls and knobs and if you watch the sales paper they go on 50% off about once a month. I have another great furniture redo I will post in a few.
Another great place for knobs is World Market, they actually have a great selection.
