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.

Do you have one of these solid pine country shelves that were soooo popular in the 90's?

Was it painted back then or left bare wood? Bring it up to 2020 Farmhouse style with a fresh coat of white paint.

Fusion Mineral Paint in Champlain was the color of choice for this cutie. This beautiful farmhouse white was going on many things in the workshop like this Rae Dunn inspired bread box, sweet curio cabinet, and this wood kitchen collection.
