Share
A Quick & Stunning Transformation
Sometimes the best projects are the ones that don’t take weeks to finish. This solid wood dresser makeover is proof that with the right products, you can achieve a bold, elegant look in just a single day.

Step 1: Prep Work
Every great makeover starts with a clean surface. I began by wiping down the dresser with TSP Alternative, ensuring the wood was free of dust, grease, and residue. Proper prep makes all the difference in how paint adheres.
Step 2: Two Coats of Willowbank
Next came the star of the show: Fusion Mineral Paint in Willowbank. A classic navy with a vibrant twist. With just two light coats, the coverage was flawless — no fuss, no stress.

Step 3: Silver Accents for a Touch of Glam
To elevate the look, I used Posh Chalk Pigments in Silver on the hardware and the decorative details along the drawers. The metallic shimmer added contrast and elegance, making the piece feel fresh and modern while still honoring its classic design.
The Final Result
In less than a day, this old dresser went from tired and dated to bold and stylish. The deep Willowbank finish paired with silver accents created a timeless look that feels both chic and versatile.
✨ Takeaway: If you’re short on time but want maximum impact, a project like this proves that a one‑day makeover can completely transform a piece of furniture.
