Wow! $1.00 Paint

 I'm at a garage sale when I see it:
One gallon brand new Behr Premium Plus, Satin, Peacock blue, sitting in a house ready to get foreclosed on and I ask the home owner how much he wants for his paint.  "$1.00," he replies and I bring it home.
Three dressers later,
two out of the three already sold.
How many more dressers can I paint with this $1.00 paint?  I'm thinking another dozen.

  5. Wow, just shows the power of a can of paint. Great job on the dressers. Similar, and yet each with a beauty of their own. Nice work!

  11. I thought of you this weekend as I picked up 3 cans of paint for $1 each! 2 were gallon containers still about 3/4 full & one was a quart, mostly full. I didn't find any fun colors....mine were very neutral. But, I love the color you found! I have a piece of furniture I'd love to paint in a color very much like that! My favorite of the 3 pieces is the last one....although I actually like the middle furniture piece most. I'm just not into something quite as heavily distressed. I'm more of a lightly distressed kind of gal. :)
