My wife Tracy and I wanted a dresser like this for one of the bedrooms in the new house. Well Tracy went to work looking for one on Craigslist and E Bay ( She is the best at hunting down a bargain). After only one day she found an add for a solid wood dresser for sale in our area. When I came home from work she let me know there was a project in the back of her vehicle for me.
I was very impressed with what she had found. This was a serious solid wood dresser. With me having a couple of days off prior to our trip to Cabo (and Tracy needing me out of her hair while she finished all the details needed for the trip) I started on this right away.
The dresser had never been finished, it was just raw wood. This was a plus for me because no stripping was needed. Just a little light sanding is all it required for prep work.
Tracy, as the main decorator, had decided that the dresser should be black. She had picked out some Krylon Satin Black paint.
I discovered that the knobs did not match. After a quick trip to Menards the dresser was complete.
Total cost of our dresser $65.00
This is our dresser and the Pottery Barn dresser
Pretty Big Bargain!!
