This little gem was a much bigger undertaking than I anticipated. What started as a “sand the top, shabby chic the frame” job turned into a complete overhaul, including sanding down drawers to make them slide (better, at all).

But she turned out to be the perfect piece!

New Dresser Alert!

This beauty was a pleasure to work with! I don’t think we’ve ever used this color before, but we’ll be using it again. A midtoned, moody blue with gray undertones. Muted, earthy, and calming.

New Piece!

We called it Colossus when we picked her up - 74” of beautiful, solid oak. I can carry some heavy furniture, but we had to take the drawers out (oof, my ego) to move this one out.

Finished in a beautiful soft coastal Aqua with a beautiful Sunbleached top, and featuring 9 perfect drawers (2 hidden behind a cabinet), sleek lines, and ch*****ne bronze hardware, she might be all you need for storage.

Paint: Watery by Sherwin Williams
Top & Drawers: Sunbleached & Aging Wax
