Saturday was warm enough to get outside and sand some furniture and boy did it feel good.
Saturday I picked up this dresser at our local thrift shop for $5. It had good bones but was dated and the drawer slides had come off and were inside the drawers. I had to reattach them. It is solid wood and very heavy. I can't move it by myself even with the drawers out.
There were stickers on the side. Overall it was in nice condition. I removed the stickers and went over it with my sander. I roughed up the finish just enough to make the new paint stick well. I gave it three coats of grey semi gloss then added the brass pulls that were on it when I bought it.
I love the gray color with the brass pulls. The simple shape gives it a modern look. Simple clean lines!
Many more furniture pieces to come!
