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.

Crisp White Fusion Cabinet Makeover


What do you do when you have 2 cute country cabinets but they no longer work in your newly built home? You bring them to me to have them custom painted in a fresh new white!


here is the before, the customer wants to use them as matching nightstands in a spare room and wants a crisp farmhouse white look


Because they are both painted a dark color and pine which can bleed thru, I painted them on all sides sans the center back planks with a good primer.

Once dry it was time to apply Fusion Mineral Paint in picket fence, the whitest of their whites.

Even with the primer base it still took 3 coats of the picket fence for a clean white finish. A light sponge sanding and they were complete, ready for years of service.
