Ugly Duckling Stand

I get so excited when I find something ugly in a store and I know that I can fix it up into something beautiful!  That’s exactly what happed with this pretty little thing!!!

Ok, ok. I know. It’s hideous. But nothing a little paint and elbow grease can’t fix!

 

I wanted to paint this in ASCP Antibes Green, but I had a customer in mind that I knew would love to have it in Duck Egg Blue. And why wouldn’t she? It’s a gorgeous color! ; )  

I paired it some accenting details in Old White and gave it a few coats of Clear Wax.

I finished it off with a creative touch by Mod Podging some of my favorite scrapbook paper into the drawers of the stand.  I love how it turned out! A striking difference from what it once was!!!

On a side note, this past week I celebrated my 29^th birthday. Wow! To celebrate the last year of my twenties, my husband got me the most amazing gift! A Silhouette Cameo!!! I can’t wait to see all the trouble that baby is going to get me into! ;) Come back and see me soon!
