This is an older primitive dresser that needed some loving. We painted the frame in Lamp Black and sealed it with Satin High Performance Top Coat for a soft sheen. The drawers and top were stripped, sanded, and stained in Java Gel Stain. They were sealed with Arm-R-Seal. Once the Arm-R-Seal had dried a mandala was stenciled onto the front of the dresser across all three drawers. The colors used were Antique White and Basil. After drying for a few days, the mandala was sealed using High Performance Top Coat in Satin.
