Chest makeover in Antibes Green

Hi there friends...
This past weekend I worked on a piece for Victoria's room.
~~~
Do you recongize it?

Here's the before...
I almost forgot to take a picture... as you can see the pulls are already off  I couldn't wait to get started!!
These were the matching nightstands to our Thomasville bedroom set...I was going to sell them on CL. 
My cousin came over for a visit and told me how she just redid her girls room and the only thing she needed was a nightstand so I offered her one of these and redid it in pure white for her to go with their new beds.
 I wasn't going to sell just one so I redid this one for Victoria's room...it was the perfect piece to put her TV on.
My go to place for knobs is Hobby Lobby but these drawes are thick and their knobs wouldn't work...the screws weren't long enough. 
I lucked out and found these crystal knobs in Home Depot and they came with long enough screws to go through the holes YAY!!
I love the way they look!
I didn't want this piece heavly distressed so I just sanded around the edges.
 I love the pop of color it added in here.


One more before and after...
Thanks so much for stopping by...have a super week!

    How great you got to use something you were going to get rid of, Martina. It holds her television perfectly, too.
