DIY Furniture Flip: Refinished Solid Maple Dresser in Classic White

In this tutorial, I’m sharing how I completely transformed a   solid maple, Canadian-made dresser   into a fresh, modern piece that’s both timeless and functional. Originally a tired chest of drawers, this sturdy maple beauty got a full makeover — from sanding and priming to a   crisp classic white finish   and   new stainless steel bar and knob hardware . The result? A clean, elegant dresser with   five easy-glide drawers   that looks right at home in any bedroom, guest room, or entryway. Follow along to see each step of the refinishing process and how a little paint and hardware can give solid wood furniture a brand-new life.

Glass Canisters go Farmhouse Style



I think glass canisters are perfect for cookies, tea, treats, flour sugar etc on your cupboard however the pale pine is just far too "vanilla". Time to amp it up...


Miss Mustard Seed milk paint in marzipan, a soft warm white color went on first. I used this same color on this sweet accent table and farmhouse pine shelf  with my angled sash Zibra brush,


To add some whimsy, I stenciled the center of my mandala stencil from Muddaritaville Studio with Fusion Mineral Paint in coal black. See the full mandala stencil used on these stools.


To age it, I dry brushed  on Homestead House Milk Paint in Confederate grey, distressed the edges and waxed with Fusion Mineral Paint clear and black waxes.
