Shabby Pink and White Dresser

I found this dresser on craigslist for only $30. 

BEFORE

I did some light sanding and then painted the sides and top white. I then painted the drawers pink, removed the hardware, and painted it a lighter pink. After letting all of the paint dry, I brushed on some dark brown walnut stain and wiped it with a wet rag. As I wiped, some of the paint came off and gave it a distressed look. I finished by spraying everything with polycrylic.  Surprisingly the colors turned out quite nicely.
