Well... it's decoupage

What would you say about that! Aren't those flowers amazing? The sideboard isn't as modest as it used to be before the change but it has its own unique charm and character.

Encouraged by couple of friends and family I decided to sell some pieces of furniture... It won't be easy... I regret so much I don't have enough space to keep them...

Modest sideboard

Very simple, modest and a little bit romantic is this white sideboard I renovated yesterday.
This is that kind of furniture that fits into many settings - you could use it in a child's room as a wardrobe, you could use it either as a toys' box or as a part of a kitchen set or if you're lucky enough to have a large bathroom you could place it in there, too.

In my opinion, country - style kitchen is the perfect environment for this vintage - inspired sideboard.

I have lightly distressed its corners. The dark brown handles are original.

Not only earl grey

My mum suggested: 'why don't you try using some colours on your furniture?' My first reaction was very sceptical - no one does colours, why should I, then? But...

Few days later I found in a magazine interior that amazed me. It was perfect in every single detail - white sofa, walnut brown sideboard and... GREY, wooden coffee table. In that moment I decided I had to have it. Better say: I had to do it myself!

This small piece of furniture begins a new era in my diy - blogger. I have my head full of new, colourful ideas: blue dresser, green sideboard, mustard table with chairs and much, much more...

Oh, I' ve forgotten one more thing: it's (my favourite nowadays) shabby chic. First painted in antique gold, then covered grey and finished with a small sanding work at the end.

A dream shabby chic dresser

I have fallen in love with this piece of furniture. It is classic, it is white, it is shabby chic. What could you expect more from a dresser?

The dresser has a homely painted finish with a touch of distressing which accentuates it's rustic charm. Its white colour is balanced by black handles and hinges.

The dresser will complement traditional home's interior, while also adding character and a sense of nostalgia to any contemporary setting.

And one more thing: I did it myself!

Don't believe? Here is the proof:
