First Custom of 2019 ~ Navy Dresser with Hutch turned Change Table

One-of-a-Kind Ornate Vintage Dresser in Classic Black & Gold

This stunning vintage dresser features beautifully ornate, raised detailing that adds elegance and charm to any space. The classic black finish enhances its timeless appeal, while the wood veneer construction offers both beauty and function. Measuring 70"L x 18.75"D x 31"H, it includes nine roomy drawers for ample storage. The original hardware has been refreshed in a modern gold tone but can be changed to black at the buyer’s request. A truly unique piece that combines vintage character with functional design.

My first custom project of 2019 came in the form of a solid Canadian built dresser with hutch that is going to be used in a nursery as a change table then as a dresser. The nursery is space themed so a deep navy was chosen as the dresser color.

This is the customer photo, I missed setting it up for one once it arrived.

After hardware was removed and the pieces thoroughly cleaned, it was time to paint.

Fusion Mineral Paint in midnight blue was rolled on with their microfiber roller. The smooth maple wood finish was the perfect surface to use this set on.

After first coat dried overnight I rollered a second coat on the next day.

The coverage with the roller and the deep navy paint was perfect.

The original hardware had a broken knob so I replaced it with these fabulous chrome spherical knobs from D Lawless Hardware.

They work perfect in the space themed nursery, right?

To add a deeper richer color as well as a bit more durability to the dresser, I applied Fusion's Hemp Oil Finish with a lint free cloth. After a few minutes it was buffed with a clean lint free cloth.
