I really didn't know what to title this post so I went with how I feel. I love how this dresser turned out!
Dressers are always a popular request. In the past few weeks I have come across several great ones and have had a lot of fun giving them new looks and new homes. Last week, I had a customer come in to look at some dressers I had available and neither really worked for her. So I put her on my shopping list to find her a dresser with better dimensions and then refinish it custom for her. Luckily the next day I found the perfect piece and got to work! (If that could only happen every time!) The dresser was blah brown and dirty when I bought it but I could see past all of that. It is Dixie, solid wood, and sturdy and they don't come much better than that. Here are some before pictures:

Love seeing this stamp! |

The top was in decent condition which is always a plus. |

Solid wood drawers with dove tail joints. Perfect!

My client wanted something that would coordinate with her current bedroom furniture...something with soft white and grey. Here are the afters:

Grey stained top. |

LOVE! |
The final product is so light and pretty especially compared to that blah brown I started with. This beauty was picked up today and is already set up!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. I love seeing my pieces when they are in their new home and I love having a happy client!
SIDE NOTE: This dresser has a matching end table that my client did not want. Here is the before and after for it.
That piece worked out perfectly! Nice job!
