Lets talk about the perfect world again. In my perfect world the wall behind my TV would be decorated. I acually have it perfectly planned out in my head. If only I had gobs of money to use to decorate my house, instead of fed and clothe my children. Oh, and I would mount my TV on my wall, and reupholster that chair.
I found this dresser/TV stand at goodwill. It was COVERED in dried gum, and stickers. I mean really, COVERED. It was solid wood, and had good original hardware. It was also only 35 dollars! AWESOME!
It sat untouched for months. More time that I would like to admit. I thought and thought about what colors I wanted this piece to be. Its really hard to match things to my DANG COUCHES! I don't want to be too matchy matchy. But I also can't pull colors out of nowhere! BUT I don't want white/black. Lame, thats old news.
My friend bought that yellow, and I had some left over mint green paint that I used on my room when I was a teenager (um, ok, so I hoard paint.) So I decided to try the color combo out.
Turns out this is my FAVORITE piece I have ever done. No joke. AND, I get the most complements off it too.
It is also not Annie Sloan. BUT, lets not hold it aginst this piece.
