Hi Friends! Happy Monday! I wanted to share a quick note on the details from the dresser I have refinished. Below I’ve listed the paint colors I used, the link to the leather pulls and how this dresser came to life! I have also linked some dresser and hardware finds if you are looking for a new dresser to spruce up your space!

This dresser was very interesting to sand down. It had alot of distressing and the paint was deep in these grooves. I sanded down until the paint was gone but couldn’t sand out all of the grooves. Originally I was hoping to just stain the dresser, I wanted more of a natural wood look but once I got all the paint off I realized this wasn’t wood that would look good stained so paint it was! I love the way it turned out!

If you are looking for a dresser like this one and don’t have one to refinish, I have linked some awesome finds below! I have also linked some handle options below as well☺️ Sometimes all a dresser, or nightstand needs is its handles changed, it can completely change the look. It can give something character and also make it look more expensive!

mango finish / black finish / white finish / anthro oak dresser / Sophia dresser / UO Amelia dresser 

multi colored pulls / gold & leather handle / gold leather pull / leather & gold knob
