It's a very simple mid-century 9-drawer dresser. It's solid wood, and needs refinished. The lines are very smooth and all the sides are flat except for the grooves under the drawers, so I think I will do okay refinishing it. I'm hoping that I can get it sanded and perhaps pre-conditioned this weekend. Maybe even more if I'm feeling extra ambitious.
Remember this guy I turned from honey-colored with gold triangle pulls? Well, probably not because I did it before I started blogging. He was a beast to sand and I ended up cheating with some blank paint on the tough parts, but I'm happy with him. Especially for my first project - I think I've gotten a lot handier since then. So, I have high hopes for the new member of the family.
Anyway, without further ado, here is my most recent conquest:
Our new flat screen will sit a bit higher, which I think we'll like. It will also help to fill out that side of the room and feel more to scale with our sectional.
I will have to start looking at stains, I'm not sure if I want to go very dark, but I also don't want it to look outdated. What do you think? Check out these options.
Enough excitement for a Wednesday night. off to bed I go!
That is gorgeous and all those drawers! What a great piece--can't wait to see what you do with it :)
