Discount Find

This once faux finished white dresser is actually an outlet find that I painted glossy white and changed the pulls- a great way to make a huge impact. Adding brushed nickel bar pulls made this older chest into a fresh, updated one. For continuity I paired the chest of drawers with a brushed nickel lamp. The opaque lamp shade is silver with purple undertones- a perfect match to the candlesticks to the right. To add a touch of sparkle, I placed a silver strie (brush dragging faux finishing technique) jewelry box with a slightly Asian pull/lock. The oversized mirror was once navy blue (yuk) and repainted, it so much better, as well as a great way to play with scale.
