Another Dresser to Entertainment Center Redo
by

(IC: homeowner)
So I previously transformed an old dresser into an entertainment center for someone and the minute her Mother-In-Law saw it she knew she had to have one for herself. She wanted the exact same colors and size!
This is a dresser I am currently working on, but since I forgot a before photo I'm showing it to you anyway. The one I redid here was pretty close to this piece.
Once again hubby sanded the top and made the shelves where we removed the drawers. Here is a picture of the piece in progress. This was after the initial color and before the glazing. To the left you can see a desk I was working on at the same time which is in another post.
Here is the finished piece..........well almost! It was in this picture I realized I forgot to paint those 2 little tiny boards in the middle shelves and had to tape off and touch them up. I really loved the details on the ends of this dresser.
Oh look, all touched up! These are not the baskets I had in mind for this piece but it was the day before delivery day and my favorite basket store was low on inventory and I needed three! But as always I leave the tags on them because to me it's kind of a personal decision on what you like and don't like so I give the clients the option of returning them for something else.
Enjoyed the project?

Merry_sherri on Nov 06, 2014beautiful job! What color is this? It looked more blue in the original but looks more green in the finished photos. Gorgeous piece regardless!

Michelle Hamill on Nov 06, 2014@Merry_sherri Thanks! It is a blue with a brown glaze over it to tone it down some. If you look at her daughter in laws entertainment center I did, you can see the color better in the picture of it in her house. Maybe she has better lighting? http://www.hometalk.com/diy/bedroom/dressers/dresser-to-entertainment-center-transformation-5581310
