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.

Another Aged Wood Accelerator Growth Ruler


Another aged wood growth ruler was custom ordered so thought I would share again the process used to create it.


For this growth ruler I chose Varathane's aged wood accelerator. It was used in the previous growth ruler post. I also did one using the the weathered wood accelerator too.


Varathane's aged wood accelerator was brushed on both sides in two coats letting dry well between.


Then using Muddaritaville Studio growth ruler stencilRustoleum's Chalked ultra matte paint in linen white was stenciled on. both sides were sealed with Varathane's diamond wood finish clear top coat in semi gloss. Three coats were applied for the perfect finish.

Be sure to stop by Muddaritaville with this link for 10% off your stencil order.


It is now proudly displayed in a jungle theme nursery, thanks for your order Kaylin.

Here is a video of yet another one I did but adding a white wash over the whole ruler then more varathane to seal
