I think it gives it more dimension (like an extra layer). Your dresser turned out great.

As a result, I now co-own a painted furniture shop in Hamilton, Ontario called The Painted Bench, we opened 2 weeks ago and we have just been approved to sell ASCP!! I am beyond thrilled and still pinching myself.<br /><br />I might see you at next year's meeting! <br /><br />You and your boys have a lovely week-end.<br /><br />NicoleThe White Pear Treehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09401096218788949486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-60114732487034956722013-05-17T02:21:45.089-04:002013-05-17T02:21:45.089-04:00Stunning piece.
