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.

Latest Salt & Pepper sets


I LOVE painted wooden salt and pepper sets, they are the perfect way to add a bit of color and personality to a kitchen or dining room.


Every set is totally unique, there is never the same set or the same color.


As always the first step is a deep scrub with Simple Green cleaner to be sure all surfaces are clean and ready to update.


For these 2 sets, my favorite  Fusion Mineral Paint in renfrew blue and bayberry were the colors chosen. Fusion has a built in top coat which is perfect for these sets adding durability in one step.

Two coats of each color were hand painted on and once dry,  Fusion Mineral Paint's ageing wax was added for additional detailing and dimension.
