Out of the blue, I received a phone call from a gentleman looking for a dresser for his new bachelor pad. He saw one of our ads online and was actually inquiring about a piece that had just recently sold. He said he was looking for a large dresser and preferred it to be black. I had the perfect piece in mind! I sent him a picture of one of our larger dressers in inventory and he agreed it was exactly what he was looking for.
For this dresser, I went with a mixture of 3/4 Annie Sloan Graphite and 1/4 General Finishes Lamp Black. Your probably wondering why the added Lamp Black. Well…I find Annie Sloan’s Graphite to be a gorgeous color, but also one of the hardest of Annie Sloan’s colors to work with if I plan on spraying the piece. By adding the Lamp Black, the finish seems to be a tad bit richer in color and much easier to spray.
Two coats later and rocking the original hardware!
I’m so happy he agreed to me staining the inside drawers instead of painting them to match the rest of the dresser. I used General Finishes Java Gel Stain to richen up the already beautiful natural wood. The end results turned out amazing.
On to our next project!

We received a phone call from a young lady just moving into her new place in the Metro Atlanta area who needed help bringing an old dresser back to life. She had recently purchased this piece off Craigslist, and when she reached out to us for help, we had no idea how bad of shape the dresser was actually in.
Feast your eyes on this French Provincial ugly duckling!!!
First things first, we had to clean this baby up! I started by wiping down the entire piece with a mixture of 1/2 denatured alcohol & 1/2 water solution. I can’t even begin to describe to you how dirty this dresser was!
Now, if you follow any of my posts, you know that I am use to working with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint or General Finishes Milk Paint. Both of which do not demand any major sanding or prep work before painting. However, this dresser had so many nicks and scratches that Chris then had to do a good sanding over the entire piece.
Even the inside and outside of the drawers needed some serious love.
After a good sanding, the drawers and entire piece was ready for a new lease on life.
The customer decided on a rich Annie Sloan “Cream” Chalk Paint to freshen up this dresser.
We then added a pop of metallic gold on the hardware and legs for an added unique finish.
This was the first time I had experimented with metallic paints, so after talking with a few other “painter friends”, I was advised to get my metallic gold from either Target’s line called “Devine” or online through Modern Masters Metallic Paints. But….I was in a hurry and the nearest store was Hobby Lobby, so I ended up just buying a small 10 ounce jar of DecoArt Elegant Finish in Metallic Emperor Gold (on sale for $4.79). That ended up not being the best decision for this project, I found DecoArt to apply very thin and a tad runny. It definitely was hard to work with. As you can see below, it showed every imperfection and I actually had to use numerous coats of paint to get that perfectly smooth finish I was looking for. In the end, it turned out amazing…but I think if I would have listened to everyone’s advise, I wouldn’t have had the added frustration.
Once finished bringing this beauty back to life, it was definitely worth all the hard work!
She loved her “new” French Provincial dresser and I felt pretty accomplished! 🙂

I’m just amazed at the things people look at as “trash”!!!
Sooooo I’m on Craigslist one Sunday morning and under the “Free” section I see that there is an Estate Sale up the street where the new owner has decided to give away EVERYTHING left in the house for free! Yep…I said it…FREE!
Thinking “This must be a scam”, I reluctantly drag Chris out with the truck to see if there is anything worth grabbing. We pull up to a very old, run down, deserted looking house and actually contemplated turning around. Luckily Chris was there because he convinced me to wait in the truck while he took a quick look inside. He wasn’t inside more than a few minutes when he came back out, turned off the ignition and told me I wouldn’t believe what was left inside as “trash”. Needless to say, we ended up loading up the truck with some amazing treasures.
I decided to start on this vintage chest of drawers first. The detailing on this piece was gorgeous!
I could see Annie Sloan “Old White” Chalk Paint in it’s future. So I went to work!
The drawers definitely needed some love!
I decided to give them a fresh coat of Varathane Kona stain. Not only did this help to hide the years of wear and tear, but it also freshened up the smell in these antique drawers.
I wanted to top the whole piece off with a light brown glaze finish to add to that vintage look I pictured. I waxed the entire piece first with Annie Sloan Clear Wax so that it would lay a good foundation for the dark glaze. If you don’t wax your piece first, the dark glaze can come out looking very “muddy”.
I then mixed up my glaze which was a combination of half mineral spirits and half dark wax.
I applied my glaze with a cheap paint brush from the dollar store and used a clean rag to then wipe the glaze back off. It left my piece with that extra vintage flare I was looking for.
What a perfect vintagie cute Chest of Drawers!
On to the next piece!
