A friend was moving a few weeks ago and offered me two dressers, and you know me and dressers, so I of course took them both home. The dressers had been Aunt Millie's and were very well made, but scratched and dinged.
Before:
I mixed up a custom coastal blue color and made it in to chalk paint and got to painting.
After two coats I lightly distressed the edges and then sealed the dresser with clear Carnuba wax.
This was a quick and easy transformation!
