Here is a beautiful antique dresser with mirror I found. It was beautiful but in rough shape!

So as you can see, she needed some love.

---

I sanded the top down with an orbital sander and 150 grit paper. The top was a little chippy but it adds character!

---

The dark walnut top stained beautifully!

Here she is with her primer on! Zinser oil based spray primer seals so well! No old stains come through.

---

Sprayed 2 coats in a soft white paint from KWAL. Once dried, I lightly distressed all the drawers and legs.

---

She has polyurathane that sealed the wood on top. The paint is all sealed with Polyacrylic for added protection!
