Meet Fiona. I decided some pieces of furniture just need a name!
This cute little dresser wasn't always so cute. It was wore down and needed a boost. I love small dressers they are great for offices, hallways/entryways and even as nightstands. It stores a lot and looks great while doing it.
I had some reject blue paint I picked up a few months ago at my local Benjamin Moore Store and thought this little piece would love to pop with a vibrant blue hue. A dash of unexpected is just my style. So I got to it and couldn't be more pleased with the results.
I did some light distressing on the edges and love how the light blonde wood peeks through. I feel it gives the piece a warmer feel, very worn in.
I kept the original hardware too. I love the bull nose rings (not sure if that is really what their called but that's what it reminds me of, so that's what I'm calling them!) They have a worn in brassy finish which I feel adds to it's character.
I might hang onto this piece for awhile. I've already filled the drawers with all my crafting supplies. It has found a home in my office which I am currently in the process of redoing. I'll be sure to share more on that as it starts to come together.

Gorgeous, Courtney!! Dang it, I need to paint something a bright color! And you are so right about the versatility of dressers. Love that moss ball on top too. Ok, and the letter C.
Love the color and the original hardware looks fantastic.
