Ugly Duckling to Swan???

 For some time now, I've wanted to do a little girls bedroom. Today, while on a "search and rescue" mission with my sister, I found a really cute little 4 drawer chest. It's the perfect size for my project.
 
The best part is that it's in great shape.which makes it so much easier to work on and get nice results.
The hardware is always an issue. So many times you find a piece and it's missing some of the pulls or knobs. This is missing one of the pulls but I wasn't planning on keeping those anyway.





My plan is to use white porcelain knobs, very feminine and perfect with the soft colors I've chosen.





These are the two colors. The pink is called Sweetheart Rose and the white is one I made and had matched. The white matches the knobs perfectly... even though it looks a bit off in the photo.

Plan:  Body of the chest in the White & Drawers in the Pink.  Hopefully, I can find a desk and chair and paint it up to match.

I'll post the progress, hoping the vision in my head will be the end result.
