Francesca had already painted the rest of her mom’s childhood bedroom set white when she decided to tackle this piece, still sitting in the barn.

This 70’s adaptation of a French Provincial classic was itching for a fresh new look!

And unlike Sis’s fantastic similar-style dresser, she chose a slightly bolder color… Pink Burst by Valspar in exterior semi-gloss.

Such a happy color!!

The hardware went white, and she called it DONE.

With aqua accessories to match its vibrancy and intensity, it is now the showpiece of the room. Way to make something new and fabulous again, Francesca! Thanks for letting me share! Wheeeeeeeee!
