An Old Dresser Gets a New Look

I found this fabulous dresser at a flea market for merely a little bit of chump change! I loved the beautiful details on it! The drawers work perfectly too! I decided to use a milk paint by American Paint company called French grey. I then used white chalk paint to highlight some of the details. Gave it a good wax and buff! Now to find it a good home!
Enjoyed the project?

Chris Leckington on Aug 24, 2015Do you think that ASP would work for this piece as well, or possibly the newest paint in one coat called Velvet Finishes? This is a beautifully done chest and don't let anyone else tell you different. I had an antique store for years and some of the pieces would have sold faster if they had been redone like this one has!!

The Shabby Nest on Aug 24, 2015Thank you! Definitely ASCP would work on something like this. I do a lot of furniture and use all kinds of paint chalk, milk,& latex.
