Nursery Armoire Before/After

A wonderful client of mine saw this dresser on craigslist and knew immediately that she wanted it for her son’s nursery.

This one has a million stories to go along with it- craigslist at it’s finest (sarcasm). And my husband almost dropped this lady’s husbands ashes while moving it. oops!

My client ordered a custom made bumper from etsy and is using some great fabrics for the nursery. We decided on Barcelona Orange for the finish.
