I love antique furniture, dressers are always fun to makeover. They serve it after years of use. It is always time for a makeover to give them fresh new life.
then repairs were made. These pieces almost always have some repairs seeing they have been used for many years. This one had a drawer brace put back in backwards so it was swapped around and all braces reglued, clamped and let to dry.
Then it was on to painting. I choose Miss Mustard Seed milk paint layering kitchen scale on first using my shorty cling on brush. It gives a nice full coverage.
Fusion's white wax sealed the entire piece. The hardware pulls were spray painted fresh white and new knobs added to add the final touches to this beautiful update. You can find a detailed tutorial for this project below.
