Stripping Pink Paint From a Gorgeous Old Chest of Drawers

I picked up this crazy painted chest of drawers from my local Habitat for Humanity ReStore. It was stinky and I initially walked away from it. Got into my car. Sat there. Went back in.
I'm so glad I went back for it, but uncovering the original finish and construction was definitely stressful, because I had no idea what would be under that paint. Sometimes pieces are painted purely as a matter of taste/style at the time, but sometimes they are painted because they are damaged beyond restoration.

I ended up with a very unique almost ombre effect on the drawers, quite by accident but it looked so neat I decided to leave it and almost feature it! I'm thrilled with how this turned out, and every time I walk past it, I love it more and more.

I hope you enjoy this insane transformation!
