New dresser?

So I REALLY want a NEW bedroom set, but there is just NO way to

afford it right now. So I was thinking what if I painted the dressers?

This is what our dressers look like right now. We bought them second hand. I have ALWAYS hated the color. But I just haven't known what to do with them.

Then I got the idea to paint them, my first thought was to white wash them, but then, I really don't want white furniture. So I thought how about a light heather grey? I messed around on picnik for a bit and this is what I came up with.

Not really sure why it's sideways, but you get the picture. I would like to paint the dresser gray and spray paint all the hardware black. So what do you think?

I know I almost always post about the kids, but this is a big decision and I want some honest opinions.

Thanks a head of time :)
