{ Coastal Vintage Dresser }

I finally took a second to take a before photo.

This dresser was already painted a peachy beige with a super shiny black top.

I rarely sand before painting, but I did sand the top of this piece because the 

top was so ridiculously shiny and streaky.

I think the precious owner painted polyurethane OVER black paint.

Which never turns out well.

(FYI, I always have a hard time using polyurethane OVER water based paint. Especially dark colors.)

Here's what the top looked like AFTER I sanded it.

This label was on the back of the dresser.

Awesome.

I spray painted the original handles black.

And I LOVE how they contrast with the blue and white.

I sanded the top again once I painted it white.

Adds a lot of texture and character.
