Silas has a Dresser.

Treated me kind
Sweet destiny

Carried me through desperation
To the one that was waiting for me

It took so long
Still I believed

Somehow the one that I needed
Would find me eventually

I had a vision of love
And it was all that you've given to me

I had a vision of love (oooh)
And it was all that you've given to me


*The missing pull on the middle part of the top drawer was just expertly installed by Mr. FPFG, so, no worries.

I'm sharing the dresser love at Metamorphosis Monday and Make it for Monday.

    Great job! Love the white and the added number is a unique touch. Love the wainscot paneling behind it and choice of colors is fantastic.

    Quite fabulous! Love the numbers...but even better is that paneling you are keeping a secret behind it. Tell us more about that...it looks great! ~mary~

    oh man! so sleek and divine. love it.

    i was at our local home improvement store a few days ago and these numbers caught my eye for many reasons. but, i didn't get them because i didn't know what to do with them.....till' now.

    wonderful idea. they really add to this dresser.

    thanks chicka!

    It's just lovely! Did you paint it or did Mr. Fpfg? Either of you would come down south and do some more furniture painting?

    Love the rehab on the dresser. Adorable. Love the lyrics even more. I just traveled back in time to the days of old mix tapes.

    The numbers? Extremely cool. Hardware? Ditto. Are there any sweet little clothes inside yet? Looking forward to meeting little Flower Patch Farmbaby.

    CRAP. I just commented "Was that Toni Braxton??????? Hmmmm, can't recall." and then scrolled up and started reading/signing again and realized it was Mariah. Then saw someone say as such. Now I am left with a foiled comment. Nice job!

    Very spiffy! I am absolutely loving those walls hiding behind it too! I have several magazine clippings saved with that wall treatment. Someday I shall apply it to my whole house!
