Mid Century Chest Before and After


Well, the 49ers waited a little too long to get it together last night, but watching it with my daughter was entertaining enough.



I haven't had much luck finding quality furniture to paint lately so I was pretty excited to find this mid century chest (which was marked as a desk by the way.. I was confused too.)
 Modern, clean lines, dove tail drawers, yes please.
 


  


 I thought it needed a more "modern" color so I went with a minty green. 
No distressing, stain or wax. Just a semi-gloss poly.

 
I love how it came out!


Another "BEFORE"


And after I brought it to the shop...




I hope this is the beginning of a good luck streak in furniture hunting.
