My son’s room consisted of a bed and a lot of toys everywhere. Since we moved, we’ve been slowly accumulating furniture and walked into a thrift store and found a cute dresser and night stand set. Get this though- it was $37 for both! I had to get them! Since then, they’ve sat, not touched in the room looking sad. So it was time for an update! Here’s how to paint a dresser.
Before of the dresser-
Try to look past all that toy and keep reading for how I’ll be addressing it! The dresser was a light wood and not terrible.
Now, before you message me saying that it looks beautiful, there was some damage on the sides (which you can see in the video). The whole thing is laminate so the damage could only be addressed by painting. I totally respect that others would have kept it as is, but for me and my house, color is the answer!
Also, if you’re wondering guidelines for when to paint wood and when not to, this post is for you.
