Sorry, I have been a little behind - I am also editor over at The Royal Baby Blog and perhaps you heard Kate Middleton gave birth, showed off her kid (while wearing heels 25 hours after giving birth without an epidural to an 8 lbs, 7 oz prince), and revealed his name as George - that all happened last week...whew! But finally I'm back and ready to share all of Steph's tips and tricks on this nursery furniture makeover. (She did the work, I write the blog because that's just how we roll....she repays me by painting furniture for me. I think I have the better end of this deal.) But anyway....I digress.



To tie the pieces together, Steph replaced the existing hardware so they'd all have the same handles. She ordered them from 99centknobs.com where each one was just...you guessed it... .99. Similar handles run for nearly $4 a piece at Home Depot. Even with the rather steep flat rate shipping of $11.95 at .99 Cent Knobs, they saved big on the hardware: $28 vs $63.52.
Since the new and old hardware were slightly different in size, they had to fill the existing holes with putty and let it dry then paint over it. Then they made new holes to attach the new hardware.
After the holes were drilled for the new hardware, but before the drawer pulls were attached, each piece of furniture was seal with polyurethane to protect it.
The bottom two drawers were eliminated in the nightstand and instead replaced with a basket. The pair of baskets was purchased at Ross' for $10.
The top of this dresser will be used for a changing table.
Now all they need to complete this nursery makeover is a baby! (hint, hint)

Really impressive work. i think you must have purchased it from any Top quality furniture company
ReplyDeleteAn exceptionally decent inquiry. Luckily most furniture arrives fine and dandy when transported and uncommon is it that issues occur. Anyway there are times when maybe a forklift unintentionally goes through a crate or a thing is inadvertently affected and it's ideal to be set up for what to do when this occurs.

ReplyDeleteYou have none of that with an online store - or at least very little. You have staff to pay of course, but that's about it. Then you get all the other benefits that an online operation can offer. You have none of that with an online store - or at least very little. You have staff to pay of course, but that's about it.

ReplyDeleteThese items shouldn't be reserved for parties though. Using disposable plates and utensils makes cleanup a snap, which is why they should be on every shopping list for household products in bulk. amazon
ReplyDeleteIf this ottoman was in bright red and your room was decorated in light blue, then it might not be such a good choice after all. However, if the ottoman in question is upholstered in powder blue it would match perfectly - unless you prefer the contrast! cheap home furniture
