Dresser Before and After
Vintage Taylor Made solid wood dresser I picked up and a bit rough looking. I stripped and sanded it down.
I try to save as much wood as I can and just modernize the finish.

This dresser had one of the drawers chewed up by a dog so I used Bondo to build a new corner and partly painted to hide the Bondo.
Diablo Sand Paper and Discs (I linked the multi pack as I used all these grits)
Orbital Sander (I linked multiple sanders. I have an
old Hitachi.)
I used what I already had on this dresser except the new hardware.
Did the bottom half aqua and used a stencil.
I used Behr spray paint. My new favorite!! My stencil I used DAP caulk, chalk powder and paint mixed together to make a paste.
Did some on the top three drawers inside for a little extra to match the bottom.
I sealed it all with some dark brown wax and replaced the hardware.
I also conditioned it all inside with a clear wax and Danish Oil.
Stencil came in a stencil pack I bought on Temu. If you’re a first time user you can use my code for a discount. opt69769
