Even though I refinish older furniture to give it an updated look, I tend to stay true to the style of the piece. In this case, I could tell the hardware on this dresser was not the original, and was doing nothing for it, so I bought new French provincial style hardware to compliment the style and painted it white.
After quite a bit of goo gone, a heat gun and sanding, I was finally able to remove all of the stickers and glitter. A couple coats of primer and this piece was ready for paint! I choose a gray color and painted the entire piece. I then used white paint and very carefully painted the grooved details. I love how it turned out!
Here is another before and after comparison. I found a pretty mirror that really complimented the piece and ended up selling it with the dresser. What do you think, would you even consider tackling a dresser like this?
