From Boring to BLACK! Thrifted Dresser Makeover! Furniture Flipping for a profit! #shorts

Follow along as I give a makeover to a thrifted dresser. Products used linked below. 👇🏼

Dewalt orbital sander

Dewalt jigsaw

DAP wood filler

Kilz premium primer

Waverly chalk paint color: ink

Varathane polyethylene

Leather straps

I bought this dresser from a thrift store for $30.
It was in good condition but in need of a makeover.

So I sanded off the finish on the top and then gave it a whitewash with watered down paint.

Then gave the rest of the piece a scuff sanding then after priming it I applied two coats of black chalk paint. To finish it off I applied two coats of sealer to protect the paint.

Another outstanding furniture flip! From boring and dated you totally transformed this piece and modernized it. The new owner will be lucky to have this dresser.

Thank you for the idea of leather pulls!
In my mid century modern home, all the drawer pulls are just slightly wider than modern pulls, and rather than having to fill the holes and drilling new ones, I can just make leather pulls to fit!! Totally awesome!

Jess, you are unbelievably talented.

Your pieces are stunning.

You need to charge more.

I'm all for making over pieces that are damaged but never when a piece didn't need it. It actually looked way better before you worked on it. Most of the time, restoring these gorgeous antiques get you way more money when done well.

I love the new look. You did an excellent job in bringing it back to life👍

I don't think the leather handles go as the previous were soo much nicer and the shape of the base too. You did a great job though 🙏🏾

Wow what transformation .
Looks great

[hbkgirl]

I thought that it was beautiful before the alterations

[pamelabryant]

Wow!!!! I thought the piece looked amazing with your painted white wash… And then you added LEATHER DRAWER PULLS! Terrific touch!!!💙💙💙💙 The leather pulls will ONLY GEY BETTER AND BETTET LOOKING WITH USE TOO!

Love the colour choices. Not digging the leather handles though. The original handles refreshed could've elevated the overall look.

Where dod you find those drawer pulls???

[richarddonahue]

Great new look. What color/mfr did you use on the top for the wash?

Loved This! And your hubby is the third Obie I know! The other two are father @ son.
Would love to know what part of Montana he’s from. We might be related. Kidding. 😂Not kidding.😳

It's very nice but I don't care for the leather handles I would rather you would have put back the original handles back they looked more durable
Beautiful job though 🙏👍

Seems most furniture is painted black. I like to see the wood grain.
