This chest of drawers was completely stripped down to bare (cedar). Repairs were made to drawers, glides replaced, and damage on surface was addressed.

Painted with a gorgeous deep gray (Wrought Iron by Benjamin Moore) and topped with several coats of polyurethane for durability.

The sale of this chest of drawers benefits the ongoing work of Paws Rescue.

SOLD!

I present to you a "Harry" chest! (See what I did there? 😜). This piece required quite a few repairs and lots of sanding.

Under all the Picasso-esque paint, was a handsome cedar wood chest. After repairs were made, this piece was painted with primer and "Wrought Iron" by Benjamin Moore. 3 coats of poly applied for durability.

The namesake for this dresser was originally named "Crush", but "Harry" suits him better. He also got a second, second chance and is living his absolute best life. I hope this dresser is as lucky - it has years of life left.

The sale of "Harry" the chest of drawers will benefit Paws Rescue.

Meet "Harry"! Harry was in hairy condition, but has a lot of life left in him!

After a young, budding Picasso outgrew this phase, the piece was being given away and I made plans for this handsome cedar chest of drawers.

This guy had broken and missing drawer glides, broken drawer bottoms, some creative carving and layers of paint that needed attention.

Follow along to see the final result! "Harry" will be available soon and the sale of this chest of drawers will benefit Paws Rescue.

I sanded this down and did some repairs thinking I was going to be good to go. Let me tell you - primer will humble you.

It's like that friend that's brutally honest and will tell you "those jeans don't look good". Primer shows every dent, scratch and crack. It's a good friend to have, even when you don't want to see the truth 🙄

So here's a video of what I missed that primer didn't hesitate to point out 😒

SOLD!

✨ Meet Ava ✨
I’m so excited to share this piece with you! “Ava” is named after one of our foster dogs from 2018 — a truly special girl who stole our hearts and went on to find the most perfect forever home. 🐶💕

Just like her namesake, this Ava is guaranteed to make you smile. Foster Ava had the cutest crooked little grin that could light up any room — and this Ava does the same in her own way. Soft, warm, welcoming, and full of personality, she’s ready to become part of your everyday life.

This Baby Cache 7 drawer dresser has seen some things and those things left a lot of damage to her exterior. After some repairs, added texture to the drawer fronts, a perfect blush pink paint (Benjamin Moore Georgia Pink) and some champagne gold coquette bow drawer pulls, this beauty is ready for her next chapter.

Whether she’s holding your child’s favorite outfits, your own wardrobe staples, or anything in between, this piece is solidly built, versatile, and made with love — and a whole lot of heart.
Every piece I create carries a story… and this one carries Ava’s. 💛
