This dresser was floating around on Facebook Marketplace for weeks before I stumbled across it. The seller had written that it would be perfect for a refinishing project, and that's exactly what I picked it up for. This piece was constructed with 100% solid elm -- even the sides of the drawers -- which is a rare and valuable find, so I had to go with a full wood stain restoration to bring out the beautiful grains. It had been previously chalk painted with some stenciling on the door; the chalk paint was peeling and chipping everywhere, due to a lack of proper prep work on the wood prior to painting. This made it quite easy to just scrape off most of the paint, with some help of a paint stripper.
