A couple of weeks back I presented my $15 dresser score. I loved the shape and size, and obviously the price. However, streaky brown was not going to cut it in my daughter's now pink - soon to be gray and purple - room.
First I sanded it with a palm sander and then I used the Ultra White Benjamin Moore paint we already had. I didn't want to spend money on more paint, so using what we had was the way to go. The dresser needed 3 coats because I was covering a really dark colour. We also repaired one of the drawers and lugged it up to the bedroom.
The photo below shows you that this dresser is indeed smaller than the one she already has and the colour is a brighter white. I managed to re-organize her clothes and everything fit. The final episode on project dresser will include a new purple wall, maybe the gray walls and proper placement in the room. Stay tuned!

Simply gorgeous! Love everything about it. Can you come over and paint Baby C's bed? Joking. But seriously, I would love it for MY bedroom. Your little girl is pretty lucky.
