Yay for you if you are enjoying a spring break at the beach, or visiting Disneyland, or headed to some other fabulous destination right now. Yay. For. You. We, on the other hand, are having a staycation, which is just like a vacation, except you don’t go anywhere. And day-to-day life is basically the same. So it’s not like a vacation at all. But hey, at least we won’t have to unpack any luggage … so … there’s that …
Sigh.
Even today’s dresser makeovers have traveled farther and wider than I have recently. This dresser from Deb has been down the Platte River a few times, and now bears a stamp to prove it. Check out the whole story on Deb’s blog Lake Girl Paints.
Here it is in action as a new TV stand!
And by the looks of things, this little dresser has been to Paris and back quite a few times. Paris in the spring? Barf. I’d way rather be folding my laundry in Phoenix. (Lie). Sarah found a French script fabric that she loved and mod podged it to the drawer fronts, then sealed it with a poly. Be warned, this takes a TON of mod podge. See more, including a matching nightstand, on her blog Funcycled.

Both these transformations are fantastic. I haven’t found a piece yet I didn’t like from Lake Girl!
