Re-Find Living - Bathroom Vanity
10:20 AMWe're still settling in, 95% done with the store, still working the back room and bathroom areas. But I'd love to share our new bathroom vanity.
We started with a beautiful antique 3-drawer dresser.
Here it is in all its peeling veneer glory! The top had 1/2 of its veneer peeled off already. This is a perfect Chalk Paint® decorative paint by Annie Sloan project.
We started with painting the vanity Chalk Paint® in Coco. This is a great warm velvety color.
Then we painted the body of the dresser in Florence. A great turquoise color that will brighten up the room.
Remember those drawers with peeling veneers?
Rather than repairing them which would include glue, sanding, and putty, I decided to just let them be part of the history of the piece.
I then used a fun Royal Design Studio stencil with gilding wax.
Here it is almost done.
It wasn't quite as deep as we needed for our LARGE sink, so a larger top piece was cut, placing the faucet behind the vanity. A little unorthodox as the contractor said, but pretty clever.
I'll post more pictures in 2-weeks when the whole bathroom is done. I have lots of clever ideas!
Hope you're inspired.
