Mid Century Modern Dresser.......

Our new client who we did the mid century dresser 

in the previous post had this dresser from her childhood.

She wanted the same two tone color as the previous dresser 

we did for her.  White body with refinished drawers.

Before pictured below.

We had to repair one of the legs as pictured you can see 

it's broken apart.  So we had to take the legs and braces off 

of all four legs to reinforce them all.

We sanded it all down.

Sealed in all the cracks, missing veneer, and scratches.

She wanted a smooth look.

Sanded the drawers and removed the wood decor pieces.

Then I primed and painted the body white

and

stained the drawers then sealed them with poly.

She loved it!

Mid Century Modern Two Tone Dresser...

New client found us on Craigslist in last month and also 

found this dresser on Craigslist.  She bought the dresser

and dropped it off with us to paint it.

She's also leaving us 2 more mcm dressers that were hers

and wants us to custom paint those too.

Those will be in a later post (working on them now).

Below is the before of the mcm dresser she found.

She wanted all the dents and scratches filled in

for a smooth clean look.

She also wanted a new wood back as the current one was 

beat up and cardboard.

So we stripped it...removed the back cardboard.

Filled in all the dents and scratches. 

Then I primed the body and painted it white which

is what she wanted.  She wanted a two tone look.

White body with stained drawers.

She wanted the stain in a certain color...

not too red and not too black.

More brown.

We stripped the drawers down and I forgot to 

take a picture of them stripped.  I was short on time.

I will with the next mcm dresser she wants us to do.

That will be in my next post.

She loved it and we did too!
