Mini Makeover

There were several pieces of furniture left in our place when we bought it, including this chest of drawers.




Yes, it's a bit mank looking, but I figured I could do something with it, as it seemed a shame to just throw it out. We have way too much space, and very little furniture to fill it!

The timber was in average condition, so I started by giving it a light sand all over.







I wanted a nice crisp white to match some of my other furniture, so opted for Taubmans Éasy Coat Acrylic in Gloss white.





A couple of coats, and it was looking much better






I then added some new handles, keeping with the classic style.





And the finished product. Looking much better! I now have some extra storage and something to fill the empty walls with.




Total Cost of drawer makeover: $50 for handles. Paint used was for existing renovations.
