Another Custom Ordered Set of Faux Tin Tiles

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.

Here is the latest custom ordered set of faux tin tiles from my Etsy store.

She wanted this tin tile pattern in shades of grey and white. I have 3 tin tile patterns to choose from: above and these two.

New tile boards were cut from hardboard I had in stock in 12" X 12" dimension.

Fusion Mineral Paint's pearl embossing paste was applied using an offset knife over the desired tile stencil which was ordered from Fusion Mineral Paint as well.

Lifting the stencil reveals the pretty pattern.

This was repeated for all 4 boards then left to dry well.

The base was painted Fusion Mineral Paint ash in a solid coat then the layers of colors were next.

Shades of white and greys were dry brushed then Fusion Mineral Paint's silver, brushed steel, pearl and champagne metallics were brushed over as well to give a metal effect.
