I've been wanting to do a true tall boy subway dresser for some time.
And recently a couple of my fellow blog ladies have inspired me to get moving on that project.
First up is Bliss @ Bliss Ranch with her Kodak Dresser.
And secondly is Suzan @ Simply Vintageous
My main inspiration started with this fabulous shaker style tallboy @ Lindauer Designs
But I had to do it in the VANCOUVER style,
and add what I'm calling my signature typo.
Only those who know Vancouver should be able to find the spelling mix-up,
but for the most part you read it the way you are suppose to.
Next time I'll share how I transformed this mid century look into a shaker style,
in a few steps.
Let me know if you see the typo ...

ReplyDeleteA couple months ago, if someone would of told me I would be inspiring YOU, I would of thought them nuts! You my dear friend feed my creativity. Your dresser looks wonderful like everything you do, and I can't find a typo.
