As Nicole reports on her blog, Scrap Me Baby, the dresser was in great condition structurally so it really just came down to a matter of painting it. Giving this dresser the black-and-white treatment makes great use of the piece’s details! It also takes a piece that looked dated and made it more modern. The “after” makes me think of a tuxedo … or a penguin. Two things I adore!
