Before & After: Sone Pulls a Quick Change on This Vintage Basset Beauty
Sone found this vintage Basset dresser at a magical-sounding place called the Mid-Century Furniture Warehouse. It needed some TLC but she was up for the challenge.
From Sone:
The original veneer on the top and sides needed a little TLC, but it was the perfect size and the exact statement piece we were looking for. Once we got it home I knew immediately that it needed to be brightened up. However, I didn’t want to cover up all of the walnut, just mask the imperfections. We also loved the brass hardware and wanted to highlight it.
Armed with a wood chisel, medium weight sand paper and a gallon of semi-gloss white paint, I went to work. To my surprise, the chipped veneer peeled of really nicely and the other areas only needed light sanding. Two coats of white paint later, voilà.
