I had been looking for a small chest like this for months (it's about the right size for a bedside table), so when I spotted this in a local charity shop, there was no question as to who was gonna be buying it! I had an exact plan for it and set about transforming it straight away.
Although I'm not a big fan of paint effects, I really wanted a slightly distressed look to the piece (I love vibrant colours on more traditional, worn looking items), so with gloss paint, gold spray (for the handles) and a foam sanding block, I set about creating the look. I LOVE the end result. Hope you do too.
This is reminding my a little too much of changing rooms - are you going to grow your hair A' la LLB?
