LIKE A VIRGIN


LIKE A VIRGIN -  YES THIS IS THE FIRST PIECE
I HAVE EVER PAINTED WHITE. SO IN HONOR OF
THAT I DUB THIS PIECE OF FURNITURE
MADONNA
I PAINTED HER WHITE AND DISTRESSED HER
AND STAINED THE TOP, WHICH I HAD TO SCRAPE OFF THE LAMINATE WHICH COVERED THE WOOD TO DO SO. I LOVE HOW MADONNA TURNED OUT. THE FRONT SECTION I MADE IT LOOK A 
LITTLE BIT LIKE A WHITE WASHING EFFECT BUT
ONLY ON THE CENTER. AND THE KNOB, IT
DIDN'T HAVE ONE SO I USED AN OLD ANTIQUE
PULL WHICH I FOUND ANTIQUING ONE DAY.
IT WAS WEIRD, I DID'T HAVE ANY INTENTION
OF PAINTING IT WHITE BUT SHE KINDA PICKED
HER OWN COLOR AS WHEN I PANTED THE PRIMER IT
JUST LOOKED LIKE SHE WANTED TO BE WHITE.
THIS WILL BE MY FIRST OFFICIAL PIECE I'M
SELLING. I DON'T WANT TO BUT I HAVE NO
MORE ROOM AT THE INN. LOL!

HERE IS MADONNA BEFORE SHE WAS FAMOUS..


AND THE NEW INFAMOUS MADONNA...
