Dresser refinish

We recently decided to move my dresser up the Eli's room, so that when the next baby arrives there is room for both of their clothes.  Currently there is just closet space but Eli takes up the closet so figured we needed to add another piece of furniture to the room to accommodate this.  My dresser was a very small one from walmart that we got on sale.  Light Birch/Oak color, so didn't go in the room too well. 

Soooo.... we decided to be different.  The room is currently brown on the bottom, blue on the top.  We decided to be different and paint it in the chalkboard paint.  I couldn't help but think how fun and different this would be.  We could write what items were in the drawers or draw pictures.  The possibilities seem endless.  So very excited.  Greg seemed to really like the idea too, so off we went to walmart to find some paint.  They sell it in a spray can for $4, not too bad.  I am going to use our sidewalk chalk to write on it with so we don't have to buy more chalk.
