Peacock Desk Another one!!

So I had my 1st peacock desk/vanity up for sale on CL. I had two calls within an hour, both wanting the desk. Naturally the first person got it. So the 2nd one asked if I could do another. We hunted around on CL for a week and I found an almost identical vanity to the first one I did. 
I had already started working on it before I remembered to grab the camera. 
My client wanted the desk done the same way, minus the blue accent. This was going in her 6 year old daughters room with zebra accents and purple walls. So I did the accents in violet. She also brought over a bookcase and nightstand for me to finish to match the desk. 
 I did the same ASCP in Pure White on the two pieces as well as the desk. 
I mixed some purple latex paint and got this lavender shade (its not as blue in person).
 I tied in the night stand with a peacock feather and black accent drawer, as well as violet accents. 
   
Here is my painting process for the peacock feathers. I finished it up after it dried w/dark paste wax.
The black is my own CP recipe. I painted the drawers and lined them.
The two bottom drawers
got "special" peacock
fabric! 
I did have a small issue with the ASCP white not covering completely. I kept getting a bleed
through of the mahogany stain, even after 3 coats. Sooooo I sanded most of it off and applied
an oil base primer very thoroughly. That did the trick. 
I made the custom hanger for the daughter and tried out my new letter stencils! 
She picked it up over the weekend and everyone liked it.  I will post a picture of everything 
in her room as soon as I get a pic!!
Ok....so here is Sydneys room!!
Mom is still looking for a vanity stool/desk.
Im hoping that background on the bookcase isnt as blue in person.  It was a nice violet
when I painted it.  I should have asked mom for a bit of the wall color so I could match it.
Hmmmmm,,,,,live and learn!
Her one-of-a-kind accessory hanger!!
