The Heskew Happenings: THE BEHEMOTH IS FINISHED!!!!

If it seemed like I may have been yelling in the title of this post, I WAS!! I am so excited that I finally finished the behemoth (Rylee's dresser)! Some of you (my 4 followers) may remember that I bought a dresser for $13 at Goodwill! Well I call it the behemoth because it is sooo huge!! I wasn't gonna buy it but I sent a picture to my good friend Danielle and she totally saw the potential in it for me. So with her prodding me, I got it. It sat in the garage for a little while and eventually I got fed up with her closet and worked on THE BEHEMOTH! I actually primed it with Kilz, then rolled on some paint with a roller. HUGE mistake. It looked horrible! So, another of my good friends Angela Caddell let me borrow her handy dandy sander! So now I sanded it down to get rid of the hideous rolled on paint. This time I brushed on the paint. At this point let me add that I went and spent as much on a new paint brush as I did the whole dresser! Yes that's right, I spent $13 on a paint brush but it truly made a huge difference! So... I brushed it on and let it dry! Then I got my Valspar glaze and started rubbing it on with a dry towel. Well upon further inspection it just didn't have the look I wanted doing it this way so I got a wet rag and wiped the glaze off. So I read up on some other blogs on how to glaze and found out it's actually better to wipe it with a wet towel. So... I re glazed it and wiped it with a wet towel! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the finished product! I also painted the original knobs with ORB and they also turned out great! However, as you will see the knob for the middle door broke. So now I have to try to find something to match it!! Let me know what you think! Also, if any of my 4 blog followers out there find a bench or dresser (a short one) for a good price please let me know because I want to put it as an entry table or use the bench in the entry area! I'm addicted!
