Wow! That is amazing. I never would have bought something that plain, but the makeover makes it a beautiful artistic piece.

What a transformation! That is so cute!

wow! what a beautiful makeover! some people are just so amazingly creative - if you locked me in a round room with tons of design mags for the rest of my life i still would never come up with anything that cute.

Very nicely done - crystals look great

I’m trying to think of all the furniture I could put crystal detailing on…probably shouldn’t put it on everything, right? :)

i like the plain version because it’s the kind of piece you “can’t go wrong” with. BUT the makeover is so classy and sophisticated, yet fun enough to go in a kid’s room if you wanted. very nicely done.

Well, even Ikea CAN become stylish !! I’m looking at my plain bedroom and I just found some inspiration to make it bolder.

Thanks, that was inspiring !

Wow, now that’s a transformation! I love the rhinestone detail.

This looks amazing! What kind of trim did you use and how did you attach it to the dresser?

Yes, I am also curious about the trim used. The end result is so glam!!

Wow, that is such an upgrade. The before version of simple white nightstand (love the wooden legs) was already nice, but after seeing it in a different way with the black framing, it’s pretty wonderful! Love it.

Wow, what a transformation! I love it!

Well done. Very ingenious.

This is an awesome before and after. I love the look.

I love this piece! Such a great way to turn a plain jane piece into something spectacular!

Oh I finally really have to say this - your “Before & Afters” should really be called “After & Before” because you always post the After first. And then I’m like, “oh that doesn’t look so bad” and then the next picture is the furniture in it’s original, sad incarnation.

Thank you all lovely people! You’re all wonderful, and the comments are making me feel all gooey.

To answer the questions about the trim, it’s just a thin moulding I found at Home Depot, in the moulding department. It was one of the smallest ones sold, all made of wood. I can’t seem to find a picture anywhere on the net but I promise, it’s at the hardware store. And it’s pretty inexpensive, I think 5 dollars for 8 feet.

The squares on the corners are slices of a square dowel, also from Home Depot. I just bought a dowel for maybe 2 bucks, then sawed it into thin little pieces. After everything was dry, I just used glue to attach. I felt everything was too small and fragile for the nail gun.

Thanks again ya’ll!
