I picked up this little 6 drawer dresser a couple years ago,
slapped on a coat of white paint and stuck it in my daughters room. Here's a pic from the original online ad with its gold accents and covered in paint splatters and cobwebs.
My daughter was in desperate need of some storage
space and so I didn’t bother finishing the dresser. Like the little desk I recently refinished,
it was certainly showing some wear.
Although I hadn’t planned to sell the dresser, I decided to refinish it
after receiving a message from someone asking if I had a dresser she could buy
from me. (I have another one already lined up so my
daughter won’t go without her storage space! ;)
After wrapping each drawer and taping off the inside of the
dresser (a lot of work, but something I've started to take the time to do!) I sanded the dresser
down and resprayed it in a crisp white.
After some light distressing, I finished it with a glossy clear coat.
Crazy as it sounds, unwrapping freshing painted pieces feels like Christmas morning to me!

I decided to line each of the drawers in the same black and
white vinyl as my last desk makeover. I
feel it finishes off the drawers perfectly.
I hope this little dresser will work well in its new home.
