After
My neighbors were moving and gave me this piece.
The doors had a plastic "carved wood" panel on them but I had to rip that off before I could even think about what I wanted to do, so this pic is after I took the panels off.
This actually lived in my house just like this until I decided what to do with it
....not even going to tell you how long that was....embarrassing
Here's the after. I added some funky colored glass knobs I had,
none of them match but I kind of like it that way
Someone was redoing their kitchen and had old brass knobs they were going to throw out,
but then, they thought I might could use them...yay!
I drilled holes in the side of the dresser to match the size of the knob post and just pounded them in with a rubber mallet, it was a tight fit so I didn't glue them in.

WOW!! That is super cute! I am a furniture makeover junkie myself, but I am 'creative' not 'artistic' like you clearly are. What a gorgeous piece. You have quite the talent!

What a dynamic transformation! Love it! You have quite a talent there.
Thank you all for the sweet comments...I appreciate it!!
This is amazing, and I think I officially am running out of new ways to compliment you. The dresser is way cute, and the knobs on the side, hello, SOOOOO cute. Theoretically you could totally use them to hang stuff, lol. I would love to have this at my regular weekly party **Amaze me AUgust**, I wish you were my neighbor, my bedroom furniture needs MAJOR help, and I want to redo it so bad, but have never taken on such a project. Maybe you could be my online teacher, :) Gosh you are very cool, so ahppy I found you!!
Hi! Just loving this transformation! So cute. But I really like what you did with the knobs on the side. So cool. I can just see them with jewelery haning all over them! Great job!
