Italian Provincial Updated in Black Bamboo..
I had purchased this dresser with a matching chest
of drawers. I was going to work on it eventually.
A customer wanted to come view a
restored mcm dresser I had done for her nursery.
She seen this one and wanted to know what my
plans where for it. I told her my design and she
wanted first dibs on it before I list.
Before above.
I removed the plastic decor pieces on the top drawers.
Sanded it all down because the original finish was chipping
and worn.
Sealed in all the holes from the plastic decor
and older hardware holes.
I had purchased new modern updated hardware for this one.
Added the new hardware holes.
I painted it in my new favorite color called
Black Bamboo. It looks darker in this picture.
It's more of a softer army green color. I love it!
Sealed in a sprayed flat sealer.
New antique bronze modern hardware.
Her and her husband loved it! So it was purchased, couldn't list it!
Before and after below.
Outdated Vintage Buffet Made Modern...
I had found this vintage buffet a while back.
Was waiting to work on it once I finished all
my customer orders. Now, that I started limiting customers orders
I can start doing my project pieces.
I love doing my own pieces so much!
This buffet I didn’t like the plastic fronts.
Didn’t like the hardware.
Didn’t like the bottom skirt.
I first removed the skirt trim. Still didn’t like it.
So I removed the plastic front decor.
Then cut the wood fronts and sides on bottom.
After cutting it, I wanted some added layer
to the bottom. So we added more wood
trim just to the bottom underneath it.
We added some wood legs to each side.
Filled in all the holes from the plastic decor.
Also filled in the older handle holes.
I purchased new antique bronze modern hardware.
Removed the back because it had a hole in it.
Added a new back.
All prepped and I was loving it!
It was coming out just like I had envisioned.
Primed it gray, then painted it in
Benjamin Moore Chelsea Gray.
Added the new modern hardware.
I painted everything, all the inside cabinets areas.
Love it! So happy with the look!!

This United Furniture vintage dresser is huge.

All done in a smooth sprayed latex finish.
Sealed in a high quality wax.
I refinished the top in dark walnut.
Then sealed in a sprayed semi gloss finish.

Italian Provincial Dresser Updated...
Had this in my inventory for sale as is
for about 7 months. It didn't sell so I pulled
it and did my own design on it.
I love doing my own designs. Less stressful than
customer orders. I can take my time and there is no rush.
Here is the before above.
Hardware was outdated.
I picked behr black bamboo for the color.
It's a beautiful soft medium green with less yellow in it.
More gray in it I think. I love it!
I purchased new modern hardware in polished gold.
Took those single drop pulls off the middle
cabinet drawers too.
I added handles which I think looks much better.
Sealed in a sprayed flat finish.
✨SOLD✨
