I don’t know what is going on here. It would appear that someone once spent about 45 seconds lining all the edges of this before dresser in gold spray paint and called ‘er done. Interesting technique. Perhaps they wanted to paint the entire dresser gold and ran out of time or paint (or motivation). Or maybe this look was … intentional. *judgy eyebrow raise*
Who’s to know. But I know I would have never invisioned it as a perfect piece for a little boy’s room, only that’s exactly what it became thanks to Elaine and her foresight. So cute! Once again we learn never to judge a dresser by it’s badly painted cover. See more at Visual Meringue.


Furniture from the 50’s. I am pretty sure my aunt had this very same furniture when I was a girl. Sheesh! So much better in blue!!
Big improvement! Anything you could do to that original finish would be an improvement. Visual Meringue, you have a good ‘eye’ for shapes and details.
I was genuinely expecting it to be cut into firewood. GO ELAINE!
What an incredible change, I especially love the color that you chose!
I love the After and would really love that dresser in my home. It’s so pretty!
