Our Master Bedroom TV Wall

Hi everyone, hope you all had a great weekend.  I wanted to share the other side of my master bedroom, the one I have never showed here before, mainly because I hated the furniture, and because  I don't like to see TV's in the bedroom, but it's a necessary evil around here, so it must stay.

I really always wanted to replace this dresser, I was never really in love with the style, and the color, well, let's just say we got the wrong color delivered, and I was too lazy to call them up to get them to deliver the right furniture.  I had been looking around for a new dresser for a while, but either the color or style was wrong (not making that mistake again) or the price was just not right.  I decided to just keep old faithful, with it's faux stone top, and just finally got the courage to give it's mega glossy, fake wood a nice coat of paint.

I originally went with some leftover ASCP in bright white, love that I did not have to prime it, but the final coat of paint just looked mega streaky, I guess it would had helped had I been able to give it a third coat, but alas, I ran out of paint.  I really think I'm way over this whole chalk paint thing...especially the price.  I decided to head on over to my local Benjamin Moore paint store, where I got a quart of their new Regal line in Matte, color is Gray Owl.  I LOVE THIS PAINT!  looks flat, but I am able to wipe it with no problem.  

So here are a few pictures of the before and during process:

Here it is after the two coats of ASCP 

BM Gray Owl on the left, ASCP on the right.

And here is the final results:

This is the much improved version of my old dresser.  I did two coats of the BM paint, I also spray painted the handles in oil rubbed bronze.  The armoire that was in the corner got donated, and in it's place, I would love to put a floor mirror, but that will most likely have to wait a bit.  The basket was purchased at Target. I borrowed the rug (bought at Costco) from my daughter's room, and I have to say, I love it here, I may have to borrow it for a little while longer ;) I know two hair balls who would LOVE that as well:

As you can see, they have made themselves at home here.  You also can see Mr. Vixen on the wall above the TV, in all his silvery glory.  

And just as a reminder, here are the before and after again:

Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
