I crackle painted this piece of furniture using the same color of paint I used for the kitchen cabinets. 

I sealed this dresser with oil-based polyurethane, instead of water-based polyurethane, which I used on the kitchen cabinets.

This bedroom dresser was given to me.  It was very dated looking.  The piece of wood I'm holding up against the door is one of two pieces I removed from the doors.  I busted them out from the back and used a router to notch out a groove to bring the backer boards up closer to the front, and caulked them.

The previous dresser knobs made this piece of furniture look very dated, because they were looped, so I took two knobs off the matching end table, which they also had given me, and put them on the doors instead.  I simply filled in the holes, where the original knobs had been, and predrilled new holes up near the top.  And then I crackle painted the end table, and put the dresser knobs on it, and sold it in my shop at the Schoolhouse General Store. 

This really updated this piece and I really love the way it turned out!
