Hi Friends,
How’s your week going? I hope everyone had a fun weekend spending time with your friends or family and eating too much candy!
I had some pretty adorable tricker treaters here! Katniss Everdeen and Napoleon Dynamite. So adorable!!
Oh man! Josh made me laugh so much!
For this week’s furniture makeover, I can’t WAIT to show you the before and after. When Christy reached out to me about doing this makeover for them, I was a little shocked by the condition of the dresser. It was basically a box surrounding dresser drawers. The box didn’t even fit the drawers into it. So we had to disassemble the outside and basically build a new exterior entirely for the dresser.
Check out the before:
Here’s what it looked like once John built a new box for it:
We painted the boxes with Benjamin Moore’s Gentleman’s Gray then we sanded down and stained the drawer fronts with Minwax Dark Walnut and put a protective clear coat over it. We also added all new hardware! If you want to see how we paint furniture, check out our How to Paint Furniture post.
Ready for the after photos?
This dresser set was done as a custom order! Head to our Shop Page to check out what other new pieces we have for sale in person or online now!
