This was an unbelievable mess before I started painting on it (sorry, I'm just to anxious to start a piece and forget the before pics).

This was such an easy and fun piece. Found a great chair, already done! Covered a small, simple vanity with Caromel Colours new color, Versailles. Matched the chair pattern with a Caromel Colours stencil. New hardware and TaaDaaaa, elegance.

Look what's new...

Finished this piece yesterday while it was trying to decide to snow or not. This would be great as a flat screen tv stand or just some extra storage.
