But as the guy was helping me out with it to my car he dropped it! Not a surprise I sort of have that kind of luck!
Because of this I was given a refund so it was free!! I did not ask for the refund he felt bad and insisted!
I fixed the chipped piece and you cannot even tell it was broken.This was painted black and had no hardware.But luck would have it…yes finally a little good luck………!
I would find the perfect drawer pulls at a yard sale for a total of 1.20. And yes that is for all for all of them!
I painted this Anne Sloan pure white with a dash of old white.Love the creamy look!
The ironstone bowl and pitcher was also found at a thrift store.I think I paid 2.00 for the set.The mirror also a thrift store purchase of 1.99 already painted.That little stool goes to my bed set.
I decided not to paint the drawer pulls but keep them as is.I love the contrast with the white!
And yes those are the same roses I have been sharing with you.Aren’t they gorgeous! LOVE these and they are my favorite too!So pretty tucked in my ironstone bowl.Of course just for photos!Wish I could keep them just like this!
They are so pretty they almost look fake!
Busy again today getting things done for my daughters party.I have some surprises I hope I can pull off!
Hope you are having a good day!

Just lovely… as usual
Your whole setup there is very sweet, love your roses!
What a beautiful cabinet! I wish I could find that kind of bargains at the thrift store. You did a great job, it looks great!

Lucky girl!!! Absolutely beautiful!!
What a beautiful piece of furniture..and you only paid $3?!?!?!?! You’re one blessed lady!
Wow, Anne, I know it was bad luck that he dropped it, but I think it worked out to be good luck getting it for free! You’d never know it had a chip in it. Beautiful and I love the mirror above it, too.
What a great piece! You did a wonderful job beautifying it!
XO,

What a deal, Anne! You did a great job fixing it up. Just perfect!
Gosh, it’s been too long since I’ve stopped by. Been browsing through. You’ve been busy! So many lovely pieces!

Anne, this is simply beautiful! Great job!
What a find! I love it and all the storage you have.
Very pretty!
First off I love your roses, couldn’t believe they were from a grocery store!
Love the chest you have there and you did a great job on it…really pretty!
Beautiful job! And those roses are magnificent!
Hugs,
Suzan
What a lovely make-over Anne! Hope you have a wonderful day, Gail
Anne, this is amazing! What a wonderful piece! I love your vignette; it is lovely! You found some amazing things for so little! Our thrift stores have gotten so high now; it’s very difficult to find anything.
I see oodles of good luck here. And what a gorgeous result! Well done!
What a great deal, Anne! Your lingerie chest is so pretty in white. Love the bowl with roses on top too.

This piece is so pretty and feminine. I can’t believe you ended up getting it for free!! It looks great.
Simple and more than lovely!

I’d say luck is on your side! Your piece turned out lovely!
I left this same piece at my daughter’s college apartment a few years ago because I didn’t want to take it home. A young girl moving into the same building kept it….for free, also. I wonder where it is now and if it’s been transformed too!
SO pretty! Silly me, I don’t think I would have thought to paint a piece like that when I have seen them at the Goodwill store! I am always thinking….I want an older look…..But YOU gave it the older look! I will open my eyes wider! Thanks!
Betsy
Such a pretty piece! What a deal to get that for free too. I know you must’ve been so relieved you were able to fix it. Noone will ever know!
I never tire of peeking in your home, it’s so lovely!
Wow! Those were great finds-I love that little dresser.
Carolyn
Beautiful blog and very elegant pictures. You got some lovely stuffs here.
Thanks for sharing.
Hope to see you on my blog:)
I think you’re the Thrifting Queen this week! lol Great finds!
Wow, that is some really good luck! A free piece of furniture and those handles were a steal! The handles are so interesting ans so pretty and the armoire looks so beautiful now with her fresh white paint!
You hit the jackpot this one! Lovely piece…
Oh Anne….what a beautiful vignette! And what a great deal on that sweet cabinet! The pulls really do pop against the white.
Love those roses, too. So very vintage looking!

If the guy carrying it out would’ve been a collector, he might have charged you for the “distressing” he did. Love the whole look of the corner.
FREE- what a deal! I’ve seen comparable lingerie chests on the net for $700 and up! Then to find your hardware at a yard sale! It was just meant to be. Your chest is really beautiful. Is it in the same room as your large linen armoire?
