I LOVE paint!

This would be the companion to this dresser I just finished.  It's a nice piece of furniture (solid maple) but was totally just ho-hum!



Before




 After

Seriously, love paint!  This was so ugly before.  I hardly ever say that about the things I pick up but I said it about this one.  It's so sharp now. <3!!






 The veneer on the other dresser was yucky so I was really pleased when I sanded this down and it looked like this!  Very unique.  I stained it with Early American from Minwax and I love how warm it is now.







 These hammered black knobs are so simple and understated and that's what I like about them! :)

  3. I would have had no idea what to do with that before and probably wouldn't have even bothered. You've done a lovely job! Perfect in black and the top is really nice.

    What do you fill the hardware holes with? They have completely disappeared!
