DIY: DRESSER FACELIFT

* UPDATE: Please excuse the poor quality of these images. These were some of my first posts :) Ill try and update the images soon.

  This dresser has followed me since I was a little thing. It has been yellow with flowers.. Im pretty sure at one point it was pink and right before I was married I decided to paint it all black and replace the handle with with these silver ones. A few months ago I was in much need of a creative outlet one saturday so I found that with a few inspirations found on some of my favorite blogs, Apartment Therapy is definitely up there in the ranking, I decided to add a little character with little effort. It was very easy, I first removed each drawer and then taped off the front face of the drawer. After then I mixed a grey to my liking with the acrylic paint I already had on hand, but any from the store would do. then I painted two coats of the grey letting each coat dry completely between coats. Then I put the dresser back together! It really was that easy about a hour total of time for a totally new look for my dresser and overall for my bedroom.
