Gray Timberwolf Dresser
For some reason I feel like I get 75% of our home projects done in the coldest months. I guess because it’s too freaking cold to go outside. The weekend after I painted the pantry doors, I painted the dresser that my gem of a sister-in-law offered me which was super lucky because I had been scouring craigslist for weeks to no avail. Thanks Katie!
The project had some hiccups. When I first went to buy the paint that I wanted by Benjamin Moore, I realized that the place that sells their paint was closed. I impatiently decided to go find a replacement at Home Depot and it was not at all what I wanted. So then I had to go back to Ace Hardware the next day to buy the paint that I wanted in the first place (BM Gray Timberwolf.) Then when I painted the polycrylic coat over the top of the paint, it turned yellow. Even though it really isn’t supposed to turn yellow. So I repainted another coat of gray on top and will just keep the paint around in case of chips or scratches. Finally, when Corey was helping me install the bin pulls, one of the heads of the screws broke off while the body of the screw was already inside the drawer. Highly annoying. We just moved the hardware down a little so it is slightly uneven with the other pull but I feel certain you guys can’t notice. Anyway, I love it! And all my clothes are organized in one place! Miracles do happen. I forgot to take a before pictures because I.am.the.worst. Here is kind of what it looked like before but with broken hardware.
And after:
