Vintage Yellow Dresser Distressed & Accented with Teal

I've been craving yellow, although I think it's actual sunshine I've been after, this color makes me just as happy.  This dresser was pretty boring but in mint condition so I gave it a make over in yellow with teal accents.  

Whatcha think?

 This combination of rustic and glitz reminds me of denim and cashmere...sophisticated comfort.

This piece is for sale on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

And, here is a before picture.

Emerald Green + Winter White + Wood + Anthropologie Knobs

Oh, how great art thou? This is truly a one of a kind piece! Your neighbors are already jealous that you are just "thinking" about buying this:)

The emerald green looks so bright and happy against the original wood top drawer. And, the winter white glossy paint on the original knobs and legs of this dresser give it an updated vintage modern look...perfect for your modern home! I added the 2 mod striped knobs from Anthropologie to add the perfect accessories.

This piece is now for sale and ready to purchase Here on my Etsy Shop, The Turquoise Iris!

Getting The Best of Blue

This is truly a one of a kind...inspired by Pantone's, Monaco Blue, color for 2013, I hand mixed the colors myself to get the look I was after for this piece. The turquoise cracked glass knobs from Anthropologie inspired the two toned variation. I think the combination of the blues with the perfect amount of distressing make this piece a show stopper! Don't you agree?

And here, I styled it a bit more organic and less traditional.

This lovely thing is for sale here on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris:) Sorry...this piece is SOLD.

Hope your week is fun and plentiful!

Teal Buffet / Dresser

Bold character and charm here, my friends;)

Inspired by Mexican buildings, 

I painted this dresser in a dark teal with a sunny yellow accent. I topped it off with heavy distressing and an espresso stain to add depth and old world charm. 
I kept the original brass hardware 

because the contrast of color is beautiful.

Not my normal refinishing style, but if it's teal...I'm gonna love it! This dresser was tired and boring but in exceptional condition.  So, in order to make it a statement in today's homes, I went bold! 

I would love to see this hanging out in your dining room as a buffet to store linens and Fiestaware dishes! Or, use anywhere really...even in a sweet baby nursery.

It could be yours:)
