I have been slow on blog posts over the past few months due to a very busy Summer, along with moving into a new house. Today as I was doing some more unpacking and organizing, I was putting away some DVD movies in the tv stand we have in our upstairs main living room, and I decided it was time to change up the tv stand.
I looked around the house for pieces that I could use as a TV Stand that would give me the storage I needed for DVD’s, playstation games, remotes, and even some board games, when I spotted this beautiful white dresser in our basement (where it still hadn’t found a specific place or use in our new home yet).
I then decided that since my walls in the living room were white, that I needed a touch of color, so I gave myself a timer- set it to 60 minutes, grabbed a random gallon of paint I had in my tool room, and got to painting.

Dresser after paint; 
I kept the original drawer pulls so I was spending $0.00 today for this project;
The dresser is painted in a very soft green It is hard to tell in these photos the exact color, but I promise you it looks lovely in the corner of my living room, and the TV fits perfectly on top.
DVD’s fit perfectly inside of the dresser drawers. The dresser helps keep things organized and messy dvd piles out of sight;
So there you have it, I found myself yet again making a small project , like organizing movies, into a bigger project, like painting a dresser and turning it into the TV Stand, but by giving myself a no money budget limit and a 60 minute time length, I was not slaving away to a lengthy or pricey project!
How will you re-use a dresser in your home!? Share with me in the comments.
Thanks for reading,
