Updated Vintage Dresser in Navy...

Totally vintage dresser probably from the 80s.

The hardware I didn't care for, amazing because 

usually the hardware is missing.  I just think

this dresser needed updating, so the hardware had to go.

Here is the before below.

Top was very worn.  Here is what I used to update it.

I wanted to add some feet to lift it.

Then new hardware.  I picked a beautiful navy color

and used the Behr chalk paint.

I've used this chalk paint before and love it.

Took off all the hardware, it was alot....

12 total.

I had to seal in the old hardware holes, then add the feet

with some reinforcement wood.

Took about 2 hours to put all those new handles on.

Sealed the chalk paint in General Finishes High Performance Flat.

Which is a matte sealer.

Feet went really well with the design of this.

This dresser is 100% solid wood, not pressed wood too.

Heavy thick wood too.

SOLD!

Before/After!

Antique Vanity Updated Into Nightstands...

This was a antique vanity before.

I was going to repair it and sell as one 

when I bought it.  Although, it was missing pieces.

Plus, I really started liking them as 

nightstands.

I removed the mirrors, some needed replacing anyways.

Removed the poles and the top backsplash.

Repaired all the loose veneer.

Which was a lot.

I painted them in a distressed black.

Used general finishes lamp black.

Sealed in high performance flat sealer.

Then added new black knobs.

French Provincial in Stained French Linen...

I love how beautiful this french dresser is.

The hardware is amazing.  Very sturdy and thick

with beautiful detail.  The style is has clean lines.

Not too curvy.

Before below.

It did need some repair on some scratches

in some areas.

I painted it in annie sloan french linen.

With some rubbed distress very lightly on

edges.  

Sealed the body in a matte wax.

I polished the handles and hardware very little.

I wanted to show some original natural patina.

Look at that hardware though?!

It has 8 drawers total.

I wanted to original wood in the design.

But was not feeling the stained top look

on this particular one.

I decided to stain refinish the middle area.

I stained it in dark walnut.  Then sealed 

that part in a flat poly.

Available!  Message if interested.

Cash or Zelle only.

Delivery available 1st floor only for an 

additional fee of $20.

Directorie Dresser in Hale Navy....

Part 2 of one of wonderful clients.  Her home was flooded in Harvey.

Ruined her pieces we had furnished and custom painted for her 2

years ago.  Here was the original one we found and painted for her.

Same color benjamin moore hale navy.  Then added a water 

based gloss sealer.  Polished hardware.  We searched for weeks for the

exact piece and couldn't find it. Did find one up north in Michigan,

but she wouldn't ship.  Plus she was selling the whole bedroom set.

She then fell in love with this one I had in my 

inventory for a few years.

We stripped it.

Then i primed it and painted it hale navy.

Then glossed it.

She purchased the hardware.  We had to seal in the old hardware holes.

She loved it! How could you not it looks beautiful!

Plus with our custom finish...come on look at those

close ups 👀😲😍
