Fixing Up an Old Dresser October 08, 2012 |
Chicago, IL
I decided to buy an old dresser for Brit's birthday and fix it up. While I am by no means a handyman, we had fun on this project and I thought I would share some of the results.
The desk in it's original form.
Scraping off the old finishing.
It took a while but the dresser was finally all sanded.
Added some scrapes to the wood to give it an old look
Painted the wood a yellowish-white.
After a few coats of paint, we sanded the dresser especially the edges to give it an antique look. Then added some more scrapes for character.
Drilled some holes for the new handles.
The finished product.
