New Use for an Old Dresser

This old dresser is from a set that used to be in my great grandfather’s home (please ignore the mess on my couch and ottoman!). It come with a great cedar full size bed. And by great I mean completely outdated, yet it is a set that is much loved by my family. I used it for many years in my guest room and my sister used it after me. She is now pregnant and needs to trade the bed in for a crib and neither my mom nor I have room for the set.

We have decided to sell the bed but I am keeping the dresser. It fits perfectly behind my sectional. The only problem is that cedar, it just doesn’t fit with my decor! I’m currently deciding how to paint it and what kind of pulls I want to purchase for the drawers. Stay tuned for the redo of this old piece into something new and modern!

    I think in a practical manner there’s nothing wrong to have it too, A single repair and paint is enough to beautify it.
