A Great Find!















I have been wanting a shabby chic type of dresser for quite some time. I didn't want to spend a fortune on it, so I decided to search around garage sales and thrift stores. I came across this dresser and had to have it! I took it home, sanded it, and repainted it with an aqua blue color! It looks really cute :)

Shabby Chic Mirror

I was searching around my basement when I came across this mirror! It was in great shape. All it needed was a coat of paint. To give the mirror a "shabby chic" look, I brushed on a light coat of white paint, and left some areas untouched.
