Painting An Old Wood Cabinet Alongside White Paint

When Michelle sent over her fab furniture makeover we had to share her mouthwatering before and after pics. Here is her letter:

About a month ago I found your site by accident and fully fell in love with it! You’ve even inspired me to start my own journal! I could go on and on but I do not wanna waste your precious time cuz you folks are busy little bees. I simply hoped to show you a piece of eye candy that I re-designed! I picked up this dresser off of craigslist.org for only $20! Then I painted it white, slapped some new hardware on it and replaced those bar looking things on the doors with glass. Is not it remarkable what a little updating can do? Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! -Michelle

Here is Michelle’s hutch straight from craigslist:

And here is the same piece after a bit of primer and paint (click here for a full furniture painting walkthrough):

Is not that remarkable? Thanks so much for sending your photos our way Michelle! What do you folks think? Did not she do a fantastic job? Paint never ceases to amaze us- and we enjoy that she brought in those panes of glass to open everything up. It is like a whole new piece that could easily be sold at Pottery Barn or Crate & Barrel for at least 1k. Enjoy it, enjoy it, enjoy it.
