Dresser Staining Project #2

Remember this guy? Scored from a garage sale for a mere $30......



Dude got a makeover:

Thanks to some brushed nickel spray paint (because that original hardware is just too cool)...And my beloved Minwax wood stain and Minwax polyurethane....


You look rather dashing, if I must say so myself! And he matches my dark wood trim sooo much better than before.
A side-by-side comparison:

And I leave you with a crappy youtube video where I look like a bag lady in the first .02 seconds. For anyone interested in seeing just how simple it is. Enjoy!

  4. Thanks for your comment about my FFF link party. I've been thinking about it for a while and your comment confirmed it for me. I need to get it back to furniture related posts only. There are enough places to share the other projects. I got caught up in the more the merrier and opened it up to other things.
