Repurpose, Reuse, Repaint
Whenever I buy furniture, I buy real wood; I mean the real deal. Wood.Very sturdy and manly. Say it like a caveman would say it. Wood. Haha! No made in China stuff for me over here. Why? Well, because it looks better, feels better and lasts longer, yes. But there is another reason...a much more girly reason. And I am sooo girly. Because YOU CAN CHANGE THE COLOR OF IT WHENEVER YOU WANT! New furniture for a few dollars' worth of paint.
Can't beat that!
Don't throw away good quality furniture. There is nothing wrong with his dresser below. It just looked a little tired.
BEFORE
A little paint and some new knobs and you are good to go...
AFTER
,,,and this tired old dresser is beautiful again!
Love picking out the color and hardware but don't want to do the work? Me neither. Who needs work?
This makeover was designed by me and refinished by the hands of Bob Schendorf of Huntington, NY.

This makeover is wonderful also.
Before we had a piece that is very important to the homeowner because it is a family treasure yet it didn't quite fit in with the more contemporary decor in the rest of her home.
After, we have a fresh and contemporary piece, blending in perfectly with the rest of the home.
