Stop! In the name of Yuck!

While out garaging this past weekend, I happened across this bright red dresser.  It was a blaring red that could be seen 100 yards before I approached the garage sale.  I parked my van and was immediately drawn to it like a moth to a lantern.  I examined it as I contemplated its' potential.  It was solid wood and in great shape. It just needed a color other than an octagon stop sign.  Then I found the price tag:  5 bucks!!  That price was enough to make me stop in my tracks.  Sold!!  



With lots of TLC, I gave this poor thing a makeover, turning it from traffic stopping red to go ahead green.  I finished it off with a nice glaze and new glass knobs.  Rescued.
