A Gorgeous Teal Green Dresser Furniture Makeover #5 of My Series

Confession...

I didn't want this dresser when I first saw it...walked right past it, actually.

I'm SOOO glad I went back and bought this dresser! It was the perfect piece to do this finish on.  The grain of the wood, the drawers ad hardware all together allowed me to create this patina with the color scheme I chose.  

This is the fifth piece in my series, all inspired by the rustic, old doors I see in images from Europe and all over the world.  The colors grab me, make me feel like I'm there, on vacation. Well, I love that, love it so much, I have a board on Pinterest titled, Doors. The image above is the one that inspired this colour palette. 

I also painted the canvas art to be included in the purchase of the dresser...#BONUS.

The broken light fixtures were a contribution from my husband.  I think they make great styling props!

I love me some malachite and marble!  Both of those rolls of gift wrap were left over from previous makeovers. 

I hope you enjoy this furniture makeover.  I find the colours absolutely mesmerizing.

As of now, this dresser is available on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

My Week in Makeovers

At some point, I may get tired of this color. Whether you call it emerald or jade or kelly, I LOVE it!! It especially glows when paired with another jewel tone. 

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

I see this vintage cabinet in an entryway, foyer or hall but the size will allow it to hangout in any room of your home. 

 Secondly, I painted this antique desk for a friend.  She has three daughters that will use this as a computer desk.  It is old but solid and I wanted to glam it up a bit for these stylish teens.

Is it Teal? Or Emerald?

This was such a fun piece to re-finish!

I could not decide if I wanted it teal, turquoise, or emerald...so, I mixed it all in one can to get this deep jewel toned shade. 

The coral accents are like sweet little kisses to it;) and the peacock paper I added to the drawer fronts just makes my heart smile!

 I was inspired by some of my favorite jewelry pieces for this color combination.

Emerald Green Credenza...Is That a Peacock?

Oh my green great goodness...it is a peacock!

This is a massive piece of vintage furniture I found last week while out searching for dressers.  Not a dresser, but I love it anyway!  

This could be used for so many things...media console, office desk/credenza, buffet, or a tv console.

I replaced the knobs with these rustic gold ceramic 

ones but left the original pulls. 

And the before pic....just for giggles;)

Solid wood and oh soooo heavy, my friends.

For sale!!

I Had to Give Ombre a Try!

I've been inspired by all the ombre I have been seeing on sights like Anthropologie, so I gave it a shot with these very cool Thonet inspired bentwood chairs!

One green and one turquoise;) 

Personally, I am loving it! 

 Either of these would make a great office or desk chair...better yet, use for a vanity seat!

You may purchase HERE on my Etsy Shop!

Happy Thursday!  Hoping for rain:)
