little yellow dresser

Earlier this week{I know, this IS my third post} I showed you the dresser I was painting and wanted to share the *almost* finished pictures and ask your opinion about something very important...knobs.
 
 
This is the dresser before.  It was Sloan's changing table, turned little boy dresser. 


I have repainted, selectively sanded, and glazed it...
 
 and now it looks like this.  While it's still Sloan's, it's in his new{to him} room and....
 I can't decide which knobs to use.  Please weigh in.  All these knobs are from Hobby Lobby{so mad at myself for EVER buying them from Anthropologie}. The Hobby Lobby knob selection rocks and I think they are virtually always on sale.  I should probably show you the rest of the room, but it's not ready for any big reveal.... 
still hunting for more paint-by-numbers, bedding to buy, and I have stuffed animals to wrangle into bins I have yet to find.  Just another almost finished project. Although lets be honest, just almost finished is my happy place.

OK, I agree Anthro is nice but you can find so much awesome stuff at HL. I love love love the paint by numbers. I'd be stealing that one with the red fish house if you lived closer. I like just the plain black knobs only because if you keep the dresser to reuse again, they will go with anything. And they won't take away from any nick nacks or other goodies you or he displays. Where'd you get that cool lamp? If you say you made it, I'm going to drive down there and deck you. I love it seriously. Kidding about the decking part.

Ok you over-achiever! Three posts in one week!! Puh-lease... :)

I agree with Jenny...plain black. The yellow is super cute, and I've decided that I need to hire you to paint my furniture for me! Impressed as usual and, let's be honest, slightly jealous of the skillz.

Well, I need to go work up a blog post because I'm feeling like a big, fat slacker!

Xoxo

I like the plain black top left. Love the dresser. Getting knobs at hobby lobby is a great idea too. Didn't think of looking there. Working (for like 3 weeks) on an entry dresser convert (it is mostly done just can't get motivated to finish it up...just painted the knobs for now because I couldn't find ones I liked. Have to add pulls for the doors I made. Can't wait to she the rest of the room when you finish!
