Blue Chest
I wanted my very own nice bed sidetable. I took an old, sad looking (water damaged + brown) Swedish antique (no good quality), gave it new beautiful hardware and gave it a professional paint job. I love how it turned out!
You can find the DIY project on my design blog: http://www.splendidwillow.com
I don't recommend painting nice antiques, but trust me when I say that this original piece was nothing to write home about!

added by Lily Gahagan to Spruce Up the House With 50 Clever DIY Ideas
Monika of Splendid Willow shows how a coat of Benjamin Moore's "Old Navy" oil-based high-gloss paint and new pulls give an old chest a new lease on life.
added by Shoshana Gosselin to Bedrooms With a Personal Stamp of Style
Put your personal spin on a traditional accent table by re-imagining it as a bold new focal point with a coat of your favorite color. This is a wow piece. Keeping the traditional gold hardware makes the piece shine and unites the old and new looks.
added by Jen Jafarzadeh L'Italien to Brass and Gold Accents Make a Comeback
One brassy framed mirror sitting above a gorgeous blue painted chest with brass knobs: that spells glamorous. A knob in any other color would not have looked right on this fanciful blue chest.
added by Lisa Frederick to Design 2012: Not Your Grandma's Antiques
Wow! Just add Prussian blue, and this antique chest sizzles. Leonine drawer pulls complement the carved detailing and the regal color.
added by Jen Jafarzadeh L'Italien to Happy Color: A Rainbow of Dressers
The regal shade of blue is the perfect color for this ornate vintage dresser with its shiny brass hardware. The color suits the personality of the piece.
