Favourite Furniture Fridays: Michaela Noelle Designs

<div align="center">Hello to The Designer Lifestyle readers! I'm Michaela and I share my life as an interior design student and lover of all things lavender and pretty over at <a href="http://michaelanoelledesigns.blogspot.com/">Michaela Noelle Designs</a>. I'm thrilled to be over here today showing off one of my favorite pieces of furniture.<br /><br />At the beginning of last school year, I moved into a new house with some friends in Seattle.  Turns out that the room I would be living in is really the dining room of the house, so I had a serious transformation on my hands! I decided to try not to buy any furniture from "standard" superstores {target, ikea, etc} and instead, hunt for the perfect furniture at flea markets and consignment shops. I found my dresser at a local Seattle consignment store and took it home, only to stare it at for a few days blankly. It needed <i>something</i>. New knobs were a must- but it was calling for something else to make it really sparkle.<br /><br />My love for chevron is very apparent if you pop over to my <a href="http://michaelanoelledesigns.blogspot.com/">blog</a>, so I decided to take my favorite pattern and paint it on my dresser. After a few hours of measuring, taping, painting, touching up and adding knobs, here's my favorite dresser:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkI7mqioDmeXP4xqyRllKTGhv7jNhyphenhyphenOK8PfvgqCzsPuj3y4U6t5GtuLbVRbWmLQ4-UERSnApgdNRkoZAmp0YNzagUPyG2uGJTkmwgmk20f3IPb4uHzcx14yg8KGW6Sr7LIlRy5CbPdh5I/s1600/chevdresser.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkI7mqioDmeXP4xqyRllKTGhv7jNhyphenhyphenOK8PfvgqCzsPuj3y4U6t5GtuLbVRbWmLQ4-UERSnApgdNRkoZAmp0YNzagUPyG2uGJTkmwgmk20f3IPb4uHzcx14yg8KGW6Sr7LIlRy5CbPdh5I/s640/chevdresser.jpg" width="426" /></a> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEis1xGXfGy9JMXWPF3NkUNG2VIXNETijG9SSqgnEVyCBRS-JZduwLZ6jF6hXYfUCpxxTRdgmd9jDEhSFKTinQvy5pOUWrelUcs10kB-Qi4hjchc36VPbfJuqLhx4ODN9uSAsSuZgB5fjQc/s1600/dresser2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="466" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEis1xGXfGy9JMXWPF3NkUNG2VIXNETijG9SSqgnEVyCBRS-JZduwLZ6jF6hXYfUCpxxTRdgmd9jDEhSFKTinQvy5pOUWrelUcs10kB-Qi4hjchc36VPbfJuqLhx4ODN9uSAsSuZgB5fjQc/s640/dresser2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjTqudEtHf1YVyfICR0OOyfob5ngSaiqEEig50Vu3LJzoC-kUP-nEPhiOduQLV42ZJpApbCjTgx7_j72xthzB3thZQEMOSDHp73-YKs3h00dXr_l9sDj59EBchZYw8XstDvJXBOd9xwnQ/s1600/IMG_5299.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjTqudEtHf1YVyfICR0OOyfob5ngSaiqEEig50Vu3LJzoC-kUP-nEPhiOduQLV42ZJpApbCjTgx7_j72xthzB3thZQEMOSDHp73-YKs3h00dXr_l9sDj59EBchZYw8XstDvJXBOd9xwnQ/s640/IMG_5299.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>While some may feel chevron is overdone or trendy, I beg to differ and happen to think it will be here for a long while! It's one of the earliest patterns to be created, and just adds a touch of zig-zag to the ever-classic stripe. Have I convinced you yet?! :)<br /><br />Thank you, Tiffany, for having me here today!<br />xo<br /><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g149/ashleylaure/michaelasignature.png" /></div><br /><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Michaela is one of my fave bloggers!
