Italian Provincial Dresser Painted Navy Blue...........

We furnished and custom painted this
Italian Provincial Dixie Dresser
for a client who wanted it in 
her nursery to match a custom
made quilt she purchased.
So we decided on this navy blue color.
Then she wanted to distressed on edges 
like I do with most of my pieces.


So here is the before...
Some veneer missing...


Sanded it down then added a bazillion 
coats of the navy paint....



distressed the edges....






this was the part that was missing the veneer...
can't even tell such a smooth repair job...










polished the hardware...





had to show close up's of my flat finish....









This bottom 2 pictures is the true color.





So beautiful!  I am soooo totally
in love with this color!!!!!
