before & after {media console}

It is really is amazing what some prying, paint and stain can do! And some shelf installing, chicken wire, and lots of imagination. :)

Here's the final product- a media console.. or buffet.. or what I would love for it to be- a changing table dresser!

I'm secretly hoping that it won't sell and we can put it in "Jim's room," as Hartley calls it. It's our guest room.. but one day we'll need another nursery. Not any time soon.

Marshall made the decision to bring out the gorgeous oak top. We had no idea it was under all that varnish!

Oil-Rubbed Bronze pulls. Check!

Chicken wire so you can still see/use your electronic devices. Check!

 Sigh. I want to keep you!

But, you're up for sale.. He's going into the Shop!

before and (almost) after

We are so excited about our current (and almost finished) project!

This 70s dresser received lots of prying and hole filling! The body and drawers were given a few coats of antique white, and the gorgeous oak top has been refinished. 

What was an eyesore and definitely dated, is now clean and casual. And perfect for housing electronic media in the shelves (and a nice 50-60" flat screen on top)! Or some diapers below and a changing pad on top. Or it could be a buffet! Possibilities are endless with the beauty.

I also think it would look good in our guest room.. hint hint Marshall..
