Welcome back my Beauties!

I am excited to be back with another makeover!

I spotted this baby at the local thrift store and ran right up to it.

It was price really cheap since it was missing most of the hardware and was pretty beat up, but I didn't let that stop me.

It was solid wood and I knew it wouldn't take much to bring it back to a beautiful piece of furniture.

I looked through my stash to see if I had extra hardware in this style but I didn't. 

This age of piece the replacement hardware gets a bit expensive so I decided to just fill the extra holes and use knobs instead which would cost way less than pulls.

So I filled the extra with wood filler and let it set.

While that was setting I grabbed my Ryobi Cordless sander and took the beat up old finish off the top of the dresser.

Once I got the finish off and wiped the whole thing down with tack cloth  I could put on my finish.

I decided to go with General finishes Gel stain in Mahogany.

It gave a nice rich finish to the top.

Once it was dry I used General finishes top coat in Satin to protect it.

I mean, look at that grain! The stain really made it POP!

Once the top had cured and I had sanded the base down and wiped it down I could start on painting it.

I wanted to use a color that would work with the warm rich top so I picked General finishes in Westminster Green!

Look how much better those drawers look!
I decided to accent them with some copper knobs! 

I think you will agree it all worked together!

I love that I was able to save a piece that others had passed over!

It took a little work, but I think it was worth it!

I hope you enjoyed this makeover!
I will be back again soon I hope, with another!
Until next time;

Have a BEAUTIFUL day!
