Made Over Chest of Drawers
I love the way Ralph Lauren always add a modern twist to a classic; he always finds a way to make the old feel new again. Inspired by his style I made over an old chest of drawers I picked up at a local thrift shop. Being the very bad blogger that I am, I completely forgot to take a before picture. You'll have to image what this looked like before. It was painted a taupe color and had white ceramic knobs with pink flowers on them. Um, yeah, it wasn't cute. But you'll just have to take my word on that. I decided to give this mid century modern chest a classic update, and I'm pretty happy with the end result.
I used a combination of things for this makeover. I spray painted everything but the drawers in my favorite gold spray paint and used Krylon's Regal Blue for the drawers. Once dry, I sanded the whole thing down and applied a dark walnut stain over the drawers.
