| Dresser body |

| Drawers |
OK, having a few issues with blogger, moving on.....
I found this dresser at my local thrifty several years ago for $50.00.
Although it didn't have any hardware, I thought it was well worth the price,
well made, solid oak, heavy, just needed a little help.
I slapped some pulls on it for the meantime, put it in my bathroom
to house towels etc, and there it stayed, looking forlorn and neglected.
Time for a redo!
After a good clean up, I gave the body several coats of
white latex satin, then did the drawers in black latex satin.
~~~~Yes, I am painting in my office, library area.
I just put down an old shower curtain as a drop cloth.~~~~
The hardware was an issue...
Over the years I've collected a few drawer pulls and knobs....
You know what I mean, the cheap, falling apart
cabinet or chest by the roadside on trash day?
Grab that hardware!
With what I had on hand, hardware wise,
and a little gold spray paint, I was able to stylishly open the drawers.
Now I have a cute, new dresser in my sewing area to store my fabrics.
Till next time,
Bonjour
