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.

Liberty Blue Mens Valet


Another solid wood mens valet has been made over giving it new life and personality.


The color I chose for this mens valet organizer I chose Fusion Mineral Paint's liberty blue. I just used it on this adorable MCM record cabinet. It is a rich deep blue that will pop with the silver hardware.

To paint it I took it all apart, cleaned the wood surfaces well, polished the hardware and applied 2 coats of liberty blue. Once dry it was all sanded smooth with distressing on the edges.

This vintage MCM style is universally appealing and the perfect way to get your fellow organized. Check out other valets I have reloved in grey, black and navy and just recently chocolate.


Everything can be corralled in one place at the end of the day, rings, watches, glasses, cell phone, wallet, change or whatever  might be needing a spot to rest till needed again.
