Antique dresser

This antique dresser has always been a "bathroom dresser" . It is from my hubby's grandmother Beulah's house. It is almost twilight zonish how similar our houses are. They are located in two different states but are about the same age.Grandma sold her home around the time we bought ours.She always had this dresser in the main bathroom on the second floor,although we have had the dresser in different rooms thru out the years it is back in the bathroom!!!! I decided to stain the top of the dresser to help bring it back to its former beauty. I lightly sanded and painted two coats of a walnut stain and after it was dry used a satin sealer. I didn't touch the rest of the dresser but I cleaned it up with oil for wood .I really love how it turned out!!!! Here are photos after I stained it . A while ago I changed the hardware to glass pulls from hobby Lobby. I love how they look and I also made a little curtain.

This this the dresser that I added the venetian mirror on my last post. I really love how the bathroom looks!!!! I am linked to http://missmustardseed.com/2012/02/furniture-feature-friday-a-feature-a-link-party/

Venetian Mirror

When we installed our mirrored sink last April ,we had planned to install a different mirror than the mirror that was already in the bathroom. My vision was to have a venetian mirror. Of course they are super expensive!!!! I found a version of a vintage venetian mirror. I have had this mirror in the box under my bed for a year waiting for the day we would hang it. We decided to keep the original mirror in the bathroom but I thought we could put my new mirror on the opposite wall.So yesterday we tried to hang it and we decided to just use it as a dresser mirror.This mirror could be hung or folded to stand on a dresser. I love how it looks!!!!! I can't believe that I had that beauty in a box under my bed for over a year!!! Here it is in my bathroom on top of an antique dresser that I just refinished .
