Since you're going with the walnut mirror, I think you should paint the dresser so there's not wood clashing right next to each other. Also, I have a question: it seems like you used to sit down to do your makeup at the old vanity table but with that built-in dresser you're putting in, won't you have to stand up to do your makeup? I've always found there are two types of people in this world: those who like to stand to put their makeup on and those who like to sit to do it. I wonder if you will enjoy becoming a stander?

I’m sure you’ve likely already finished the project by now, but I would suggest a pull out “drawer” that is a counter top if you’re going to use it as a vanity. Then you can pull it out and tuck a chair comfortably under the counter. And alternatively, it could be used as a hide away changing table in the future!!

What a great idea! I was thinking that the full dresser would be uncomfortable to sit at for vanity use, so this is a fantastic solution. I hope she sees this and does it. I wanna see what that would look like and how to do it!

You should keep the dresser in wood to start with as it's easy to paint over but hard to go back to wood if you decide you don't like the paint. Plus a nice stained wood would pop nicely against the wall paper. :) can't wait for part 2!

Grrl! Love your vision for this space. So inspiring! I'd love to see the dresser stained a rich walnut like the mirror, with brass knob/details to pull from the sconces. Those beautiful jewel tones pulled into the space with a dainty vintage vanity chair, blue cushion, green leafy plants (if they would be happy in the space), and pops of red (I envision red cape cod Avon bottles with eucalyptus or other greenery). Pumped for pt 2! Sending love, and hope you're feeling better ✨️

@winternight8813 Жыл бұрын

Lovely episode Danie! My suggestion is painted navy-sh blue lower part, drawers etc with brass drawer pulls of course! And for the top matching walnut wood or a close fake of the color of walnut. And for the bottom that is hiding vents, wooden "oak" color bead board giving it texture with a vertical stripe. To give it a little "kick' you can cut out a few flowers and artfully put them on the drawer fronts Since this matches nothing else in the room I think new bedding in navy sheets with a soft pink duvet and alternating pink and navy pillow covers and a dark "oak" brown throw should help make the room cohesive without breaking the bank. Love your stuff D!

@thinkingbout Жыл бұрын

Ideas that came to my mind when thinking about the dresser. 1. Stained wood matching other wood you used in the room, to tie it together After seeing the mirror: 2. Staining the wood matching the mirror but that could also take away too much from the wallpaper (depending on how much the mirror covers and how much it pops in the eye) so maybe 3. Staining the top of the vanaty and painting the rest a blue matching the wallpaper or vice versa have fun with combining both as it fits the space best Also 4. Stain the top of the dresser but wallpaper the rest so that the wallpaper has a bigger moment and the top kind of feels like a special shelve that you can decorate. Which also could be too much so 5. Like the forth but painting the rest of the dresser in the dark blue background of the wallpaper and adding just some wallpaper details to them🤔 All of these are good options and what you decide on depends on what you want the nook to achieve, how to feel etc. So maybe trying out those combinations by editing the wallpaper and everything on a photo of the space to see, how it looks and feels could help with that! Maybe they all feel too heavy for you and after that you decide to go for a lighter color from the wallpaper instead. Wishing you a great inspiration and easy decision making! Can't wait to see what you've gone for in the next episode! :)

My suggestion: walnut dresser top for natural element and to match the mirror, and drawer fronts either colour matched to the wallpaper background colour to blend or accent colour to pop. Or if you are feeling particularly bold, maybe continue the wall paper on the drawer fronts (that might be cool). Whatever you go with I look forward to seeing it and I am sure it will be beautiful, just like everything you do.
