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.

Grey Salt and Pepper Shaker Set

 


You know I love a pretty salt and pepper shaker set update. Here is the first one of 2021 in a soft rustic grey!


Scrub clean inside and out with warm soapy water and some Fusion TSP Alternative and then they are ready for the paint.


Fusion Mineral Paint in the color sterling was brushed on.

Two coats in total were brushed on then lightly sanded and the edges distressed.


Then Fusion Furniture Wax; ageing wax was added to give an aged look for a farmhouse feel.
