Hello pretty ladies,
Today here in Alberta we had lots, but I mean, lots of rain! For a moment I thought I was back in the tropics! Note that I'm not complaining here. Actually, I love rain. It cleans the roads, the air, everything looks so green. And I love green!
While we've been having a blast outside between lakes, festivals and lots of rain as well. I also been working while the kids are playing just in front of me!!! Yes, and here is a piece of furniture I did this week. It was fun and I just put this one few minutes ago for sale, so as I miss coming here too, why not show you guys this lovely cottage style dresser?
I hope everyone is having a wonderful time and I'll be back with more projects soon.
The grey top. I just add a different color for a bit of contrast here
And Anthropologie pulls, from $14 each to $2.95 on sale! What a bargain, hey?
That's the dresser before:
Lots of scratches on the top and everywhere!
But nothing like a sander to help in the process, right?
That's it girls, a brand new dresser.
I can't wait to finish the kitchen to show you guys!
Have a awesome weekend!
Love, Li :-)

Hi Li, so lovely to see your post:) WOW, I love this dresser!! The grey top looks great and I just LOVE those drawer pulls!!! Wish I lived nearby because I would snaffle it up:) Hope you are enjoying your Summer, even with the rain:) Happy weekend my lovely friend. Hugs to you~ Tina xx
Hi Li,
it looks so fantastic!! If I was over there, I would buy it myself! it looks so great! Its nice that you did decide to post again, but i totally understood your last post; I was going to write to you, its been a crazy week.. But your kids look so adorable, and you looked so happy and relaxed in the pics! My two cousins live in canada; I should find out where, I cant remember. One of them married a canadian girl and he moved there, now his brother has joined him. Must find out... Not sure if you will get this as my computer is playing up! Have a really great weekend Li, hugs to you

The dresser is gorgeous! How can you let it go?
Hi Li! I've missed your posts. Wow what a transformation - and i am so jealous you found that hardware at Anthropologie for $2.95 - i think i've been going at the wrong time lately because all the sale stuff is gone already lol. I can't wait to see your kitchen!!!!
wow. what a lovely make over. You did a great job. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Li, Wow that thing was awful before. You have really worked your magic. Love the pulls and the price! I love the way you styled it with the bottles and jars and galvanized bucket.
Looking forward to seeing your kitchen.
Hi Li!!! Wow! you're back! and with a fantastic post!!! You did an awesome work with that dresser! Absolutely LOVE it!!!
Have a nice new week!

Hi Li,
What an amazing transformation! It looks great!
I would be so happy to get just one day of rain right now. It's sooo HOT where I live right now.
Have a nice day,
Hugs ~ Jo :)
Oi Li! Passando aqui para conhecer você e seu lindo blog! Seu móvel reciclado ficou um primor, amei! Boa sorte na sua reforma da cozinha, acho que ela vai ficar bem clean com os armários em branco. Minha sugestão é que você escolha uma cor vibrante para pontuar em objetos de decoração e de uso da cozinha! Vai dar um contraste bem bonito com os eletrodomésticos (prata/preto) e com os armários (brancos). Parabéns por sua disposição e capricho nos trabalhos de decoração!
Quando quiser aparecer para uma visitinha, meu bloguito está de portas abertas: cantinhodavovojenny.blogspot.com
Bjs e boa semana!
Hi Li! Beautiful work on that dresser! Can't believe the incredible transformation. Those pulls make all the difference in the world, don't they? Great deal on those, for sure. You do nice work!
We've been having a very hot and humid summer down here in Michigan. But not going to complain....it's much better than 20 degrees with snow! lol!

Wow...Love it.You did a fab job..I'm working on an old sideboard at the moment,pop over and have a look.xx
Hi lovely Li!!
What a transformation! OH my goodness this dresser is beautiful. You did a fantastic job.
We have had no rain in a month here on Vancouver Island! Lots of sun but we do need some rain...maybe you can send some!!
Hope your having a great summer.

Beautiful job! The white looks so crisp and I just LOVE those drawer pulls. I can't believe I missed them at Anthropologie. It looks like you've been busy even with the kids home from school. I myself had to take a break from blogging, partly due to all the summer activities with my kiddos. Glad to see you're enjoying the summer.
Dearest Li,
What a metamorphose for that dresser and quite a job!
Greetings from Georgia/USA

Oi Li!
Depois de um tempão vim agradecer sua visita e suas carinhosas palavras no comentário que me deixou!
Estou com problemas com meu Desktop e não estou postando com a frequência de sempre... Mas breve terei resolvido tudo e poderei acessar meu arquivo de fotos e imagens para os posts!
Estou conectada agora no Note do meu filho, que deixou emprestado comigo enquanto conserta o "encrencado", rs...
Virei sempre te visitar aqui e quando quiser apareça lá no meu cantinho também!

I'm a bit late with my comment Li! Hope you're doing ok.
Your dresser looks wonderful. How is your kitchen coming along?
I have posted today about some lamps I found. they are green so i thought you might like them :o)

It looks wonderful. I have one I've been afraid to paint, but now seeing yours, I'm wondering why I was.
Blessings,

Hi Li, I"ve missed your posts. I hope you're enjoying your blogging break. I inadvertently took one as well and feel refreshed again. It was great coming back to this post as I so enjoyed this dresser transformation. Best to you and your family. A warm hug from your blogging buddy in California.
I can hardly believe it's the same dresser...you did a remarkable transformation!
Amazing job!! It looks wonderful...what a difference!!!

Wow, the dresser looks amazing! And I love the frame above, not to mention the stunning jars. The grey top was just the right touch! Can't believe what it looked like before. Hope you had a great weekend. Michelle
