Found this great dresser at my local restore. It was in perfect condition but I didn't like the finish.
I gave it a good cleaning and took off all of the drawer pulls. Applied two coats of chalk paint (American Paint Co) in Dollar Bill. I did a light sanding in between the coats of paint. I then waxed it using Minwax let that dry for 20 minutes and gave it a good buffing. I also painted the pulls using the same process.
The picture doesn't really do it justice. It's really a beautiful piece and I'm thrilled with the outcome.
Enjoyed the project?
