I can hardly go a week without featuring Before & After

projects.  They're so inspiring and motivating, aren't they?


Dressers like this one can often be found at thrift stores and yard sales:

 Ramblings of a Southern Girl

The chair on the right is obviously the 'before' of the pair.  It's

almost unbelievable how much more attractive the chair on

the left is after a paint treatment and a toile fabric seat cover. 

Just by looking at it, you'd think that this little

dresser had just about seen it's best days . . . . .

Think, again!
