Blue for Baby {Themed Makeover}

It's always so stinkin' exciting when a baby is on the way. Our family will be growing in the next few months. Thankfully, I'm not the one who's expecting this time, ha! My one and only sister-in-law is expecting their first baby soon and as far as we know, it's a girl.

This new babe will give my 9 month-old baby girl another cousin to play with, and someone for us to adore and love. As a gift to my SIL, I offered to refinish a dresser for the baby's room. As it turns out, she had already found a dresser style on Pinterest that she loved and was hoping to replicate.

I've got to be honest that I had no idea how awesome this whole thing would turn out. You see, this month's themed makeover has the subject, "Inspired By" - meaning to redo a piece of furniture in the styling of another piece we've seen on the internet, movie, etc. I had NO inspiration because I have NO time to peruse such frivolous things like other blogs, Pinterest, and... what's a movie??

As it turns out, I was thankful to not only be able to give my SIL and her husband this gift, but also to fulfill the themed makeover quota. (she giggles wickedly)

Enter in this gorgeous aqua blue dresser by Sharon at Lilikoi Joy. You know me and my Craigslist love, not to mention that it's aqua! (My entire blog post about that color here - yes I LOVE it).
