I got this vanity off craigslist (love that site)! It was sitting in someone's basement, and had water damage around the bottom. I have seen exact vanitys selling at consignment shops for well over $170. This one needed a little help, but I had someone that fell in love with it and wanted me to paint it in a Moroccan theme. Not knowing much about that theme, I set out on a search. The first thing I found was the new material for the seat, and went from there. As I was waiting for the material to be shipped, I started sanding, glueing, and painting this piece. Here is the before.
Moroccan theme...huh!
With cabin red paint I mixed some black, and some more black to get my 2 colors, and bought a little pod of yellow for the accent stencil. There is a large round mirror, but I kept it in a secure area, I didn't want anything to happen to it. I did use the material in all the drawers, but I forgot to take a picture. It was picked up today, and I think she LOVED IT!
