Now, it's four years past. I am WAY past this look. It's the only thing left in my place that is country-style-ish. Been trying for 2 months to flog it on eBay but it's not making it past the silent "watchers".

So now I have been considering instead of selling it, change it to what I'd like. So taking some colours from Maine Cottage as inspiration, what do you think of this colour (interior and exterior) to makeover my dresser? Toyed with having a lighter/different shade interior too.

Not that I will have the time nor space to paint this myself! Yellowpages here I come. Wonder if it will cost heaps to get rid of those middle-of-glass-bits...

I am really seeing your dresser thingy in white, or oddly enough a sort of dark grey/wet concrete colour. I would get new doors made for the bottom so they don't have that country-ish curve and replace the handles. That's it. Maybe take the doors off the top part and wallpaper the inside.
hehehehe kim you don't know how accurate you are with the grey comment. my entertainment unit is light grey green... with all those changes, i might have to just sell it and get a new replacement! i liked the pink interior for the bottom image because the china seemed to POP out of the interior... as you can see, you CAN"T see my jug collection through those dumb glass doors.
Drey,
You could just get rid of the doors altogether, fill in the hardware holes with woodfiller and then buy yourself a power painter. :)
I like the pink color. You could totally paint the inside of the curve in the bottom doors a slightly different color than the rest the piece, thereby making it modern country. Would be cool.
Pink!!!! I would just go for it! I love furniture that is painted two different colors. Pink inside, and maybe white on the outside??? fun. If you can't sell it anyways,...I would just play with it!!
i dare not paint over that! chickening OUT! but i need something like that. i wonder how much a specialist painter will charge to spray paint it for me (afgter looking at me in disgust at desecrating something so gorgeous).
