Day 2 of 31 Days of Prepping for the Holidays

Today I continued working on that little dresser.   I primed it, put a base coat on it, taped it,

changed my mind, re- taped it, made a mistake, corrected it and

........ahhhhhhh success.

Primed

Base coat


Some of my friends
Use a foam roller to get a nice clean finish



My newest friend..... A Dewalt Sander


ADDING SOME STRIPES....WITH THE NECESSARY TOOLS


Having second thoughts.....it might be too much to stripe the front.



Patience is a virtue....ugh....I taped the front too soon and when I changed my mind it pulled some paint off.....I spent the next half hour correcting my mistake
But it turns out that was a good thing because I rethought my design and tweeked it


I really like the stripes!!




The surprise element is the BLUE LEGS.....when I am finished those BLUE LEGS are going to make this dresser.
