Dramatic Wood & Paint Dresser Makeover - Furniture Flipping

This dresser needed full refinishing, new drawer slides (which I make myself with a table saw and some scrap wood from furniture deconstruction), and hardware. I opted for a wood/paint combination, using a custom mixed stain and one of Fusion Mineral Paint's new colours, Chestler.

While it always pains me a little to paint over walnut (even if it's veneer), that was the vision I had for this piece, and I left a lot of the beautiful woodgrain showing.

I did add new legs and new hardware, though I went back and forth MANY times over my choices. In the end, I AM happy with it and, best of all, I'm going to be donating this piece to 10,000 Carrots Rabbit Rescue, the rescue I help out with and foster for, and we will be raffling tickets (local only, sorry!).

In addition, you'll see a bit of our brush with Hurricane Fiona, and Nacho's new sombrero. 😍
