I'm the person who gave you the dresser and I am delighted to see it as you said you would do. Well done to all your hard work and as you say hubby was shocked at first. Isn't it nice to say "I told you so". Men don't appreciate the hard work we do and the foresight of women. I had intended at one time doing this project but with a million other jobs - new house to build - I couldn't see that happening for years. Enjoy it, it is beautiful and has lots of charm. Tess

What a beautiful result... You've inspired me to do the same with my pine dresser. XOX

Hi Angelsfishingrod, an excellent job to be sure, I think I have a set of 4 ceramic knobs, (white), in my shed. If so, and if you'd like to change the handles on the dresser, they're yours, I'll let you know :). This is the kinda stuff I like to do also...........and me being a man ha ha. Anyway, let me know lass.

Best regards

Bill

what great patience you have well done it looks fab x you have given me the idea to strip and paint my kitchen table but im afraid the paint will just chip off easily with the kids playing etc. did you need to put any type of varnish etc on top of the paint?

Hi Tess..
So glad you have found the dresser, I hope you are happy with the result, I was delighted to receive it and enjoyed doing it up.. I think it looks lovely now and its pride and place in my kitchen. So Thankyou again for the dresser I really appreciated it. and yes, I do say that to the hubby whenever he changes my ornaments around!! and puts his on it!!! that makes me mad... lol

Hi Joshua3.. Well, I didnt use any varnish.. dont like the finished product,, all I did was give it 2 undercoats, and then 2 /3 top coat of Satin finish paint, which does state that it will not chip. Spend plenty of time rubbing old varnish off, and you will get a better finish, and also rub gently between top coats to get a smoother finish.
Hope this helps give it a go. Goodluck. :)

Hi Bill, Thats very kind of you.. I would love them and can change it around.. good idea. Best Wishes Fi :)

I can't believe its the same dresser. Very well done to you. It looks fabulous.

I totally agree. What a fantastic job you have done!

That's so beautiful! Well done!!!
