Yellow Chest of Drawers

Yesterday we completed our first project for the nursery. I had my mind set on having a yellow set of drawers and really wanted to have a go at doing it myself.

After spending hours on Gumtree I found the perfect solid set of drawers and we were able to talk to seller down to $80.

I sanded down all of the drawers and Daniel went over the main areas with the sander. We then applied two coats of white primer to prepare the surface. We baught an acrylic yellow paint from Riot Art and Craft, and 250ml stretched for four coats over all of the drawers and the main chest! I used a sponge brush instead of a regular paint brush which was so easy to use and helped to avoid any brush marks.
I chose some new silver knobs from Masters, and here is the finished product! I'm so happy, I finally have somewhere to put all of the little baby clothes that I have been picking up from garage sales.
