Classic Dresser Upgrade

Dresser Before Painting
and worn out top

Jim rescued this cute little dresser from the depths of someone's garage to make it pretty again. It was the perfect flip dresser that has three spacious drawers and dovetail joints. This is a desirable feature in dressers.

This dresser had a durable structure, except for the top, which was in rough shape, so Jim made a brand new top and stained it with English Chestnut stain, which complements the blue chalk paint.

The new hexagon shaped drawer pulls are nickel, which work well with the blue color.

This dresser is for sale, asking $375.00. The measurements are 40" wide x 18-1/4" deep x 33-1/2" tall. Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing this dresser.

Jim’s Background

Jim has many years of experience in both woodworking and metal work. He retired in 2020 from a company where he was an industrial painter. He’d always been interested in woodcrafting and creating things from his imagination. Since he retired, he has been able to spend more time helping me with furniture work. His input is invaluable since he does the bigger repair work as well as making things for projects. He finds creative solutions to unique problems that are part of the restoration process. Jim and I both have completely renovated our home in St. Clair Shores, where we resided for 24 years prior to moving to Marine City in 2016. That renovation was a testament to our problem solving abilities that transferred well to restoring and refinishing furniture. If you know how to take something apart, you have a better insight as to how to put it back together again, but not without careful planning and attention to detail. That’s what makes us a great team!
