Early Mid Century Dresser....


We found this one with the bottom front base board gone.
Also, there was some veneer issues in various places.
Repaired all veneer issues, made sure all drawers
opened and closed correctly.  Repaired the drawers that didn't 
to make then open/close smoothly.
Added a front base board.
Stripped it all down.


Primed and painted in fusion raw silk.



Stained the bottom drawers and bottom base surrounding
the drawers in dark walnut.
I really like how the wood compliments the light ivory color.
Added new modern aged brass hardware.



Sealed everything in a satin sealer.






BEFORE AND AFTER.

Black on Black Campaign Dressers...


Very rare for me to get 2 exact chest of drawers in 
at the same time.  These campaign dressers where in good condition.
But not enough to put up as is.


Stripped and removed the L shape hardware.


Painted everything in a matte black.


Added new modern matte black pulls to the top drawers.
Then painted the original handles in matte black.


Black on black is my favorite.



Top coated in a flat sealer.

This mid century dresser had the most damage to the bottom.
The bottom board brace was gone as pictured.


The veneer and boards on legs came apart.

More splits on legs.


They tried taping it together to hold.


We stripped it all and repaired everything pictured above.


Sealed in the old hardware holes.


I painted it in fusion bayberry.

So so beautiful!!

Early 1950s Mid century Modern Dresser in Two Tone...


Found this at a thrift store, it was missing some nipple knobs, 
the bottom front trim, and the drawers didn't open/close correctly.
We stripped it down to the raw wood.


Repaired all the missing veneer, fixed the issues on the drawers 
so they can open/close correctly, and added a trim to the 
bottom front.


Painted the drawers in fusion goddess ashwagandha.
Its a white with gray undertones, so a very light greige color.


Stained the body in american walnut.




Top coated everything in a flat sealer.



Painted the original handles in matte black.

Added new modern matte black knobs.



Bottom drawers are very deep.



Painted the black metal slats in matte black.





I'm loving this!
