It is HUGE. Seriously almost as tall as me and I am about 5'7". See....
It was tough to see the top to paint it, but I managed. I chose Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Provence that I ordered through Kelly at Stylish Patina. I ordered it and it arrived in just a few days time! Out of all the chalk paint colors, the two that I gravitate towards have always been Paris Grey and Provence. You may recall I painted the bed that went with this dresser in the Paris Grey, but this dresser, with its orange tinted bakelite pulls, was calling for Provence. I gave it a couple coats of paint, waxed it and added a teensy bit of golden oak stain to my clear wax, and then I distressed it. Here it is now...
Alright your turn!

I grew up in Connecticut and I loved going to Sturbridge Village as a kid and getting the rock candy!.
Beautiful! Have fun on your day out with the kids!
Cas, you made a wonderful color selection again. That grey blue really makes that piece more romantic! I love it! It's hulking frame is now softened for even the most mild-mannered girl! Absolutely gorgeous! LOVE those waterfall pieces!
What a beautiful piece of furniture - and a great colour choice too!
Gorgeous blue...very you Cassie!!
Thanks for hosting and hope you're having a ball with the kids!
Thanks for hosting, Cassie! What a beautiful makeover!
Have a great vacation! OSV is one of my favorite places ever. I grew up not too far from there.

Love it, Cassie. You've inspired me to try the Provence - we just picked up an old dresser at a sale yesterday - maybe that's the colour for it!!

I think that is one of the most beautiful pieces I have ever seen you do! It's just lovely!

Cassie.... I love it! It's right up there with my last newest most fav.

I've always loved Provence, and that was the most perfect choice for this piece! It's so striking with those pulls, which are gorgeous! That won't last but a minute at the sale this weekend I'll bet!

I seriously think twice about putting my stuff on your parties sometimes. The things I find here are so AWE inspiring...and then there's my little treasures :(
That dresser is AMAZING and I love that blue too!
Sounds like we both love the same two colors in the ASCP line. The chest looks wonderful Cassie.
Blessings,
Linda
How do you do that? How do you make every project better than the last one? You are amazing, and so is that dresser! I'll have to show this to my daughter. She has a waterfall vanity with bakelite handles, and I think this kind of makeover would be something she'd love.
Love the dresser, Cassie, it turned out gorgeous!
I'm late to the game this week but thanks for hosting! There are some fabulous pieces linked up. I love the blue dresser - one of my favorite colors and you pulled it off beautifully!
That color is freaking gorgeous Cassie! And I love the original hardware. You're fantastic at what you do!
Thanks for the fun party! I'm furniture-crazy right now, can't get enough ideas!!!
