Vintage French Provincial Vanity - Dixie brand



Vanity purchased at a flea market barn 45 minutes away - I found junk heaven!  It was in rough shape and needed lots of love.  I took advantage of a bright sunny day in the middle of our snow days.  I sanded it down, primed it and put two coats of Valspar Du Juour Semi Gloss paint I had left over from trim.  For the glaze I mixed up some Valspar bronze glaze and black craft paint and glazed the vanity.  I am not sure I like the shabby look and wondering if it needs a "clean lines" look now.  I may change it before listing it for sale.  I am going to patch the holes in the drawers and change the knobs to clear glass. 


FOR SALE: $150 OR BEST OFFER!
