Antoinette's Reveal

About three weeks ago I shared a dresser that I had purchased to make over. Since then I have been sharing only sneak peeks of her!;) Well today Antoinette is ready to make her debut! She is all dolled up and ready for her new home!

I really love how she turned out. I used both Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and CeCe Caldwell paint.

I decided to add a little something special to the sides. 

I kept her hardware because it was to me just to die for!

 She is truly a one of a kind piece now!


Here is a look at her before pic.

I am hoping Antoinette will find a loving home very soon! And Opps I had a wonderful FB pal point out to me that I put my handles on upside down. No worries they have been fixed!:)

Linking up to the following linky parties:

Beautiful, Pamela! I love the colors you used and, I agree, the hardware is gorgeous! I love what you did on the sides. I was seriously considering a harlequin pattern on the sides of mine, but I decided not to push my luck {next piece!}.

A few blog friends and I are hosting our first link party tomorrow to finish off the Imagine the Impossibilities Challenge, we go live at 7amET. Today I revealed my project for the challenge, a gallery wall with only one screw in the wall.
