Dresser Makeover

A few years ago we were given a little dresser that made its way into our closet to be used for some of my things. As we started preparing and planning for the nursery, we talked about finding an old dresser and fixing it up to use as a changing table. We looked around on craigslist for a while before realizing that we could use the dresser we already had sitting in the closet! I am SO PROUD of Matt for the job he did! I think it is perfect, and it is exactly the look we wanted for the nursery.

Before (we forgot to take a before picture with the hardware on)

This is the hardware that was on the dresser before

Matt primed it, painted it, scuffed it up some (which he said he felt really silly doing after spending so much time fixing it up!), and put an antique glaze on it.

Then he added new hardware, and put a wooden top on it.

Here is a side-by-side before and after.

Doesn't it look fantastic? Matt has a few other projects he is working on for the nursery, so I'm excited to see the nursery as it keeps coming together.
