As I’ve been able to work on furniture projects this summer, I realized that I’ve been working (off and on) on my friend’s yard sale dresser for just about a year. Holy smokes!! Now, I have to remind myself that I did a lot of work at the start last summer, some more work this winter…and then the dresser sat. As things have a tendency of taking up space…especially when they aren’t actually serving a purpose, I figure I’d better just get going on the last step that remained. Over the past week, I was able to get a couple of clear coats on the dresser and the drawers. I am beyond pleased with the way it turned out. You’ll notice in the picture that the dresser doesn’t actually have a top. Taking the top off was one of the first things I did during the overhaul. I believe the dresser will actually have a raw edge wood slab for the top, so that’s not a step that I’m responsible for. I do still have the original top in case it is needed for sizing.
So, other than a new top and some drawer pulls, this dresser is good to go.
