This large Drexel Heritage oak dresser belonged to my grandparents. And as much as I don’t get sentimental about pieces of furniture (since I have to let so many go), this one was really special to me. I wanted to highlight the beautiful wood while moving it out of the 70’s and into a more current look. With some inspiration from RH and using General Finishes Water-Based Stains, we update the piece with a beautiful natural oak custom finish. Adding new turned legs and vintage inspired hardware complete this incredible transformation.
