Some Irony: Before and After Pictures

Is it irony? I'm a little worried about using the word wrong after seeing this sketch.

After complaining that before and after pictures are deceiving, below are the pictures of the dresser that I redid. I say I redid, but all I had to do was sand and clean the furniture and remove and replace the hardware. I started this project after I was already pregnant and Travis decided after I started I shouldn't paint. My dad primed and painted three coats of a paint color I decided I didn't like and Travis painted two coats of the final color you see below.

I was planning on putting a handle where you see those two empty holes, but it turns out they are too close together for any standard handles that I could find. Travis said he would fill them in and repaint, so until he gets around to it I'm just calling the holes added character.

My dad (who gets some major props for all of his hard work) also tightened the dresser. It used to be so wobbly that you could barely put your hand on it with out feeling like it was going to fall apart, now it is as sturdy as new. It was initially going to go in the baby's closet, but I love it so much we might be using this one until we get around to buying her real furniture.
