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.

Green & Gold Photo Frame

 


I finally decided how to finish this frame I had painted awhile back.


You can find how it got to be this beautiful teal green HERE.


This gaudy gold frame became gorgeous green along with a couple more shown below.


I just love this color. I was stuck as to how to finish the inside of it so just waited.


Then I decided to go with 3 rows of rustic jute cord. The lengths were power stapled to the back then tied in a knot over the staple.


To further secure I glued each knot.


New D ring hardware was added to the top edge of this solid wood frame.


And it is ready to hang photos and cards using mini clothespins.
