retro dresser re-do

I was lucky enough to stumble across this 5′ dresser at my local thrift store. For a mere $49 this gem (that needed a little TLC) came home with me!

I’ve been wanting to replace my giant, cottage-looking armoire that held my tv for some time now and I knew this piece would make the perfect contemporary tv console. So…with a little paint and some new drawer pulls…let me introduce you to my new tv console…

I’m thrilled with the results. It’s a much needed change from the old armoire, plus, it makes the living room look so much bigger.

One thought on “retro dresser re-do

  1. I love this dresser. I happen to have one in my garage that is kind of dated and thought about just putting it in a garage sale. You’ve given me a great idea here. I can sell the furniture I’m currently using at a thrift shop (I’m saving for a vacation and it has to come from some other form of money, not my regular paychecks). I’ll re-make the garage dresser and create a headboard. Thanks for your blog, I’m loving it!
