I found this dresser on Craig's List. Nine drawers for storage of my painting and crafting supplies is just what I needed.
I used Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint in Aubusson Blue and Soft Wax as the finish.
The hardware was sprayed with a light coat of Rustoleum's Satin Nickel.
This is the before. I first painted the dresser with Louis Blue Chalk Paint, but decided that was too light for this dresser.
Love the Aubusson Blue.

Popped over from Metamorphis Monday. What a nice surprise! I love the color! I have not tried any of the chalk paint. Gonna have to for sure! That will make a handy storage piece. Great job!

Just beautiful! I love the blue,do tell about the chalk paint. Is it wonderful?
Mmmm, very pretty. Yes the darker blue looks much better on it. Also I know that dark handles are the rage right now, but I really love the silver on this. Lovely.
Wow! I really am loving that blue, I just went and bought some chalk paint yesterday and now I'm wishing I had bought that color!
Wow! That color looks sooo good on the chest! Love the bling of the handles!!
Blessings!!

Saw your beautiful dresser @ Mustard Seed, great in blue!
Love this! Really, it's fabulous. I was wondering though, if the true color is darker than your photo. I have the paint swatches from Anne Sloan and the Aubusson blue seems much darker. I'm only asking because I want to order this color but would hope it was darker like the swatch.
What a gorgeous color and piece this is. Thanks so much for joining in on my newbie party. Welcome to blogging. Hope you have fun. Looks like you are off to a great start.
