Curvy Dresser in White

Sold
31 1/2" H x 19 1/2"D x 62 1/2"W

I mixed half and half Old White and Pure White for this dresser and used Artisan Enhancements in Pearl Plaster everywhere but the drawers and top.  I dry brushed the Pearl Plaster on and it gives it a slight metallic distressed look.  I used it on this dresser as well.  The top was re-stained in dark walnut and the original hardware painted in oil rubbed bronze.  This piece would work just about anywhere!  Excuse my photography skills - I have none!  I tried using a flash and it was too bright and it's a little cloudy today.

Didn't get a before, but it was all brown with brassy hardware like most vintage pieces.  :)

Drexel Bow Front Chest

 Sold
49"H x 38"W x 20 1/2D

I found this chest on CL right around the corner which rarely happens!  It had just been listed so I ran over  opened the top drawer and saw Drexel and said I'll take it!  It has a nice curve to the front and is solid wood with great hardware.  I painted it in French Linen, oil rubbed bronze hardware, and a dark walnut stained top.

Old White French Provincial

Sold

73"W x 31 1/2"H x 21D

This may be the cleanest dresser I've ever bought, was solid wood with dovetail drawer joints, and was in almost perfect condition.  It had a couple of scratches and the top needed to be re-stained.  I painted it in Old White, distressed, and sealed with clear wax.  Original hardware was painted with oil rubbed bronze, the top was stripped and re-stained with dark walnut and sealed with Minwax water based oil modified poly which you can use on floors!  This was the first time I tried this poly and loved it - it dries super fast, goes on easily, and sands smooth.  When I went to pick it up, it was on the second floor of a condo and this thing is long!  Fortunately there was a guy that worked at Fedex there to buy something else and was nice enough to help the seller and I maneuver it down 2 narrow flights of stairs.  :)

Provence Dresser

(Sold)
56"W x 21"D x 34"H

My daughter wanted to get rid of her tall chest and put a dresser in her room to match this piece that she is using as a nightstand although a long one.  So I found a curvy dresser on CL that she liked and painted it in Annie Sloan's Provence.  I put one thin coat on the drawers and two coats on the rest, lightly distressed, sealed with clear wax, and painted the original hardware black.
