From drab to DANG, this outdated dresser got a serious glow-up ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I measured, cut, and calculated each wood slat carefully. No shortcuts here. Glued them on, brad-nailed them into place, then filled every tiny gap with caulk.

BUT let’s be real, I made a rookie mistake. I used two different primers (why though 😅), which meant some serious re-sanding and re-priming. Lesson learned: BIN primer all the way.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then came the fun part: paint! I used a general latex paint, turned it into chalk paint with a little Chalktique magic, and added a touch of polyurethane for extra durability.

To seal the deal, I’m using a diamond finish satin poly with my Max Finish sprayer. Easy to clean, super quick to assemble, and honestly, a game-changer for smooth finishes.

Can’t wait to show you the full video on how I use it in under 5 minutes 💪 Stay tuned!
