Refurbished Chest of Drawers


REFURBISHED CHEST-OF-DRAWERS
So I finished the dresser, It was quick and easy. And I am in Love with the end results!

BEFORE

I think my kind of nesting isn't cleaning...I think my kind of nesting is painting, sanding, and refurbishing. It consumes my thoughts! I find my once a week DI visit has turned into , well, a lot more than once a week! HA!

AFTER
(ready for your close-up MR. Chest of Drawers?)

I painted the chest-of-drawers Ottertail from Kilz. I had left over paint from my family room. I gave it a thick "one-coater" and then sanded it down. I wanted to see the white underneath and the wood to give it a vintage/ antique feel. Then I stained Ebony stain over that. Let it cure for twenty minutes and wiped it down. I kept the little knobs for the top two drawers and spray painted them black, then just bought cheap Wal-mart knobs for the other drawers and spray painted those black also!

Here is the end result~



It has given me plenty of room for Caleb and the new baby's things!
