I am on the lookout for a sideboard for my dining room...in the meantime, I found a dresser that I will be using. I forgot to take a before picture of the entire dresser, but I do have the ghastly drawers....the piece was not in the best of condition and I had to make a few structural repairs before painting. I picked this up at GW for $14. The front was covered with Spiderman stickers, so I had to pull out the Goo Gone and go to work.
I love the hardware that was on the dresser, so decided to reuse. I first spray painted in silver.
I needed to tone down the silver and pick up the wonderful shape of the handles. I used black acrylic craft paint...covered the handle and wiped off the excess.

meant to add that your idea for antiquing the hardware was brilliant!

She's beautiful and perfect! Love what you did with the handles. I will have to keep that in mind.
Thanks for sharing,

It looks super and I love the way you finished the handles. What a lot of storage. Super. I really love the vignette you have arranged on top also. Such a great piece. Hugs, Marty
That turned out beautifully. I especially love the close ups of the handles. What a difference in that before and after. I'm impressed. Thank you for sharing.
