I bought this dresser at Savers for $6. I forgot to take a picture of it before the transformation but it was a medium brown color. It is real wood and has the dovetail drawers and was in descent shape save a few cracks and loose pieces in the drawers that some wood glue was able to fix. I tried some different techniques and colors on it but did not like my work. I sanded it down and gave it to Matt. He ended up staining it with our favorite stain color, Kona. Then he painted over that with turquoise paint and distressed it by hand so the stain would show through. We added some beautiful handles from Hobby Lobby with crosses on them and finished it off with protective furniture wax.
