I finally finished my painted french dresser, the one that I have been using to create a video to explain how to use crackle tex, my product obsession right now. I thought I would show you pictures tonight because it is eleven o’clock and I am so ready to put my head on my pillow. I still have quite a bit of video editing to do but I promise it is coming!
I am so mad at myself with these pictures. I waited to download all of the pictures onto my computer after I took the dresser to the store. They looked so much better on the camera and they turned out blurry…UGH. Lesson learned… and I hope you learn from my mistake. Don’t take your furniture out of the house until all pictures have been downloaded and edited. *UGH*






This is probably one of my favorite french dressers that I have ever done. I love the textured neutral tones and the dark top. I took it to Homewood today. My space was pretty well wiped out after the weekend! Thank you to those of you who came an shopped!


















This is absolutely gorgeous! I think it’s my favorite too!
I Love this!! Cant wait to see how you did it!. I met your Mom and Dad last week in Tuscaloosa so Mom speaks very highly of your work, and she was right. I have enjoyed your site, and will continue to follow you on a regular basis. Great IDEAS! Teresa Turner

Kelli, it’s breathtaking! Wish I lived closer…I’d snap it up!
Thank you Susan!
WOW! That is breathtaking! I love love love it! Megan
I love it. Can’t wait for you to show us how to do it.
Love the dresser and the LAMPS! Did you do them too?
Thanks Donna! I actually got the lamps for a steal at Home Goods:) right place at the right time!
That looks fantastic! I have done the same thing. Pictures look great in the camera and then they are blurry on the computer! But, I still totally enjoyed these pictures! I am about to paint an entire bedroom suite that is the same style. It belonged to my grandmother! So, I am looking at all of this style painted furniture that I can. I am having a hard time deciding what to do with it!
oh meliisa… Good luck:) that is by far the HARDEST part. Once you know what to do the rest comes easy!
LOVE this…can’t wait to see your video!
Hi! Can you tell me where you got the beautiful mirror above the beautiful dresser?
Hi Casey! It is an uttermost mirror and I got it at a yard sale if you can believe that! You can find them online still I think. Search uttermost mirrors.
This turned out beautiful! Great job Kelli!
That dresser is fabulous. Would love to know the technique you used as I just got a similar dresser at an estate sale.
Beautiful! Waiting patiently for the video…well, kinda patiently:))
