Nightstand

I got this night stand from Gently Used (actually got a pair of them but someone bought one before I could even clean it up!)
So here's the before:


After:



Close up of drawers:

I'll try to get a picture in better light tomorrow.
The paint is Heirloom White with Golden Oak stain over it.
The drawers are decoupaged out of scrapbooking paper.
I'm still debating if I should paint the drawer pulls...any suggestions?

Edit to add better picture of drawers:

Katy... painting the handles, I could go either way. They look great the way they are, but could also see them painted. hmmm not much help, am I?
I am featuring your blog tomorrow! I hope I can send some traffic your way.

Found you from Gail's post today (repurposedlife). That is gorgeous! Nice work.

Hi, Gail spoke about you on her blog today. I really love what you do with furniture. The B&W decoupaged paper is so pretty. I will have to give that a try!

This is so pretty. I love it the way it is but if you were to paint the hardware I think it could be pretty in black. I also paint furniture but mine is pretty wild and crazy. I have been thinking of doing some "dialed back" pieces and I have copied and pasted your image into my inspiration folder. Thank you for sharing. You have a definite flair.

Just found you today, Gail at Repurposed Life said to hop on over and take a look at the fabulous job you do on furniture. She was right. This nightstand is beautiful. Can't wait to see more.

I love your nightstand! I found you from Gail's site. Your comment about your shop being in a dangerous place made me laugh - I can totally relate! I'm new to blogland myself. Feel free to come by a take a look! www.punkinseedproductions.blogspot.com

Love that! I'd love to know what that scrapbook paper is. Do you know what line it's from?

About the knobs, what if you painted them a muted turquoise?

Very nice. Funny I have a pair in my garage just like this awaiting transformation. They are for a teens room and I am planning on painting the handles PURPLE. I'll let you know how it turns out. I am stealing your idea about decopauging the drawer fronts. Well done!!
