Chalk Paint Dresser Makeover

I finished this dresser up a little while ago, but it was hiding out in my basement workspace which isn’t good for photos. So, today we brought it upstairs for some pictures before it makes it way to my booth space at Thrifty Elegance.
This dresser started out as your typical chest of drawers. It is very good quality furniture though. I got it from my friend at work as they were emptying out a relative’s home.
I knew what I wanted to do with it right away. I removed the hardware and got to work. I started with a coat of Annie Sloan’s Chalk Paint in Graphite. I put a thin coat of the graphite on the whole dresser…I didn’t have much of this color, it was just a sample pot that I had already used for another project.
The hardware got a few coats of Valspar spray paint in Brushed Nickel. After that dried, I reattached the hardware and it was complete.
