misty teal dresser

I wish I would've taken the time to snap some before pictures of this dresser!  The veneer was chipped, cracking and completely missing on one corner.  I've said it before, but these kind are the most rewarding in the end.  

The color is very similar to this one.  The color in the photos looks very similar, but Madeline's dresser is a bit more minty.

BM Misty Teal in high gloss.  Love the glossy shot.

I send each piece with a small mason jar of touch-up paint.  Even though I always allow at least a week before a pick up, the paint takes an entire month to completely cure.  The touch-up paint is sent just in case there are any scrapes or chips while the paint is still "soft" and during transportation.

    That is just gorgeous! Great idea to send home a little jar of touch of paint. I just bought some knobs similar to yours. Yours look stunning on that dresser. Your work is exquisite.

    The extra paint is a great idea! I haven't quite started selling my pieces yet, because I get obsessed over it like they're one of my little children, and I can't part with it. Lol. But when I do!!--they will get a small sample too. :) also, I love the smooth finish you produce. Can you tell me which paint sprayer you use? I think it's time for an upgrade. Thanks!

    What a pretty color! I'm such a earth tone gal that sometimes I forget to step outside the color spectrum box. Beautiful job!
