The Marilyn Monroe..Shabby Modern Black Tallboy

I have had one of the busiest months ever and it looks like it may continue on for me. Havent posted in a while but thought I would share a recent piece completed. I have been so inundated with custom pieces that I have only been able to do a few pieces on my own. Well this is a piece I am very proud of, especially when you see what it used to look like...

This is the before..

Now see I loved the look of the dresser, just hated the natural wood color, so a simple color change of a soft custom mixed matte black, created from recycled paint and instantly...an amazing change..I kept the original hardware, just painted them a silver matte, which now makes the hardware take center stage.


The interiors of all the drawers have also been painted a nice antique white which is such a nice contrast to the black. And for a few more after photos....
A couple of closeups...


If you are interested in this piece, it is for sale, and you can view more photos, dimensions, and more in my online store, The Recycled Rose.
