"A modern update to a dated piece! This piece is solid cherry wood. I wasn’t a fan of the shell design in the trim so I removed the entire base and built out a new one. Added some modern feet to bring it back to a decent height.
I went way over budget with the new hardware but I think it was well worth it! Body is General Finishes Alabaster, the perfect shade of white. I added a raised stencil to the top row of drawers.
Top was stripped and sanded and finished in General Finishes Dye...

After a good cleaning and some elbow grease, I sanded the top down to the original wood and stained it in General Finishes Ash Gray Gel Stain.

"Entire piece was cleaned, scuff sanded, primed a few hundred times, and then painted/sealed using General Finishes Brushable White Enamel in satin! As you can see from the before picture, there was some grain with this piece and you’ll still be able to catch some glimpses of that texture under all that paint!
