Beachy Style Drawers

I have been churning out the pieces while the sun has been shining. I did put the electric blanket on the bed this week but thankfully I haven’t had to use it just yet. You dont mind the morning and evenings being on the chilly side when the days are just so beautiful.

I didn’t do the before shot of these drawers but they were in pretty bad shape. Lots of marks on the top which had to be sanded but I am so happy with the end result.
This was one piece that I couldn’t make my mind up on a colour. I did paint them white first up but after looking at them for a few days I mixed up a chalky blue/green and now they look much better.
These are the original old handles which I think look pretty cool on this tallboy.
Perfect for the little man in the house.

    The electric blanket has been on for over a week in our house – bit too chilly at night for me! Love the colour you mixed up. 馃槈

    I love this! I love how the white comes through on the top and sides. It adds so much interest and texture. Did you dry brush the blue on or did you lightly sand it to get the white to show through? would LOVE to know!

    they look gorgeous Sandy! My brother had the exact same drawers as a kid…Mum and Dad still have them but I 'ruined' them a few years back by trying to strip them and took chunks out of the timber…oops! Thankfully I know better now…next time I'd just paint them 馃檪

    Love that beachy faded shade of blue, and the distressing is perfect. Yes the handles are just right…. Thanks for sharing… now we can all be inspired.Speaking of which, you might like to pop over to the French Cupboard blog where the lady there has stencilled? gorgeous French writing on a chest of drawers that she's just finished. l really think you'd love what she's done.
