I just finished refinishing an old dresser for my sister. She bought a dresser online for 11$ and was going to keep it as is, until I came up with a most awesome idea of painting it. I had no idea what I was going to do, but new it at least needed to be painted. When we brought it to my place I soon discovered one drawer was broken beyond repair. I decided to take it out and turn the space into a shelf.

Now came the primer and paint, I chose an off white color.
I decided to distress the paint a little but quickly decided it looked to plain. Off to the store to buy some stencils. I used a beige paint for the chevron and stenciled the front of the drawers. Added the same color to the top and bottom.
I really like the way it turned out. All it needs now are some handles.
