The in between of the dresser!

The in between of this dresser was quiet the process!  We started it by going to Lowes thinking we can do this remodel with no hassles, ya know, the whole we got this because we watch HGTV everyday kind of attitude! ;) Well after picking our primer and getting our paint 10 minutes before the closed, we headed on home to start our project.  

We open up the primer and start giving the dresser some coats with our new fancy brush!  Well... what we didn't realize was that  the primer was oil base and would end up ruining our fancy paint brush, new roller, and get stuck on everything in our home!  So we had a good laugh after hours of figuring out how to get it off Daniel's hands and realizing that it was not going to come out of the brush!  P.S. We tried one of everything including laundry soap to try and get it to clear from the our new little special brush!

We had our fun and learned our lesson that you do not get oil based primer and water based paint! And that just because something is a $1.00 cheaper doesn't mean you should just go with that option! You should probably read about it before hand.  Headed to Sally's Beauty Supply and picked up some pure acetone to get it off the floors! (Did I mention that we picked up the acetone because we had already used all of mine that I use for nails..)   And that Mr. Roylance got down on his hands and knees and scrubbed our floors for over an hour, yeah..he's a good man! 

  In conclusion, it took around 5 coats of paint on to get it all covered.  And we pretty much totally learned our lesson and had some good times while doing it! 

Note to self: Read up on things and don't just go for the cheapest one to save a buck because in the end you may end up spending more than you wanted to for the project!  ;) 

Here are some pictures of trying to coat everything over and over and over....Enjoy!
