34. I always look forward to seeing your work. You never let me down. But, I have to ask. How do you come up with the what you will put on your signs? Pig powder, really?!? I would have never come up with that. You are the best.

35. Love the red. It is so nice to see a dresser not painted white or blue!!! Very pretty.

36. What a beautiful color with those crystal knobs. I hope you win the bathroom makeover, I would love to see what you could do with the place! With all the inspiration you provide for us, it's the least we can do to vote for you!! ~Lili

37. Great job on the red dresser, it's so cute! Did you free hand your signs? I wish I could draw so badly! Instead; I draw, so badly! I voted for your bathroom…and really? A window to no-where? I guess you don't have to worry about "peeping Toms". Marcia

38. LOVE the red! Of course, that's my favorite color but the dresser does look dynamite. I really like the sheep sign too. I've been voting ~ so hopefully you will win. 🙂

    Can't wait to see more ~ especially if it's red.

44. I voted for you and I don't even know you. I hope you win! Your blog is great!

45. I LOVE your dresser makeover!! I just picked up a dresser and a child size desk from an auction. I am going to cut the desk off and turn the desk into a bedside table!! You have inspired me… Thank you!!!

46. i really just want to congratulate you on all of your hard work and the inevitable joy that will be a secondary blockbuster… an empty stall at the show. i am sure you will have so very little to re-stock your pavilion with.

    waiting to hear all the news. good luck… wendy

47. The dresser is amazing! Such a transformation, and the signs are just precious.

48. Love the red dresser. I am about to paint a small desk/table. It is already a maple color. I have sanded it some to remove the varnish. Alot of people paint black as a primer. I’m not really crazy about it. Do I need to put a stain on it before I paint it red? Thanks for including the name and brand of the red paint! I had bought some barn red and it was too dark and too brown.
