This was my first furniture project that I tackled. My husband had these 2 old dressers since he was a kid. You know, the old 70's dark wood?? He wanted to donate them to Goodwill but of course it "sparked" an idea in me! I told him let me try something and if it don't work, well then we are only out the cost of paint.

Thank you for linking up to The CSI Project. I love redoing furniture and also feel a bit sad when selling it, especially when you have worked hard and loved the results. I have never really been a fan of the slightly destressed look but the way you have made it so suttle really makes me want to try.
ReplyDeleteYes I agree, there are a lot of different levels of "distressed". And some are too much. And I also think it depends on the color of the piece. Thank you for the compliment!!
