A Coat of Paint















You hear it all the time -- what a difference a fresh coat of paint does for something. And it's true... that's all we did to this dresser - literally dressed it with a new coat of black paint and it looks 100x better! FYI... for some reason, the paint did not want to adhere to this dresser and it took quite a few coats of primer, applied lightly over and over again with a spray can. Then, it took three coats of brushing the color on... but in the end it was worth it!
