Clever Dresser Makeovers: Bringing Forth New Possibilities
If a furniture piece becomes old and outdated, it doesn’t mean you should get rid of it. Some people appreciate these pieces and the memories attached to them, but not everyone feels the same way. This article explores how you can revive an old dresser by giving it a makeover.
Whether it’s a family heirloom or a piece you found in a store, we hope to provide ideas on how to transform it into a functional storage piece for your home.
The old dresser in the kids’ room can be rejuvenated with paint and extra shelves attached to the sides. These shelves are perfect for storing books, magazines, and other similar items. Paint them to match the dresser’s body.
This chest of drawers has a distinctive post-makeover design that is reminiscent of a Volkswagen. The vintage piece was meticulously transformed, with each individual part being painted. Cardboard stencils were used to create a unique and eye-catching look for the dresser.
French dressers like this one are charming even when old, outdated, and dusty. They’re a perfect resource for makeovers, with many interesting possibilities. Repainting is an option to consider.
Depending on its function and location, you can make it stand out or blend in. Pink is a bold choice here, combined with white drawer pulls and black-and-white stripes on the drawer sides for a chic new design.
Using patterned fabric to line the dresser drawers can be an intriguing idea. Check out the dresser makeover on Abeautifulmess. The various patterns and colors give the dresser a fresh look.
The fabric stays hidden until the drawers are opened, making it a delightful surprise.
A simple way to refresh an old dresser design is by replacing the drawer pulls. There are many creative options to choose from, such as fabric bows, colored beads, rope, pom-poms, figurines, or toys for a cute look in a kids’ room. You can find inspiration for these ideas and more on athomeinlove.
Have a surplus of yardsticks and nothing to do with them? You’re in luck! The project we found on Cornerhouseblog requires a plethora of yardsticks to cover a dresser.
Simply adhere them to the front of the dresser, ensuring space for the drawer pulls. Get creative and arrange them in patterns.
The most versatile method to decorate a dresser and give it a fresh look is using paint. Paint can be used in various ways. For example, you can personalize the dresser later on by using chalkboard paint, stencils, or tape to create new designs. You can also paint stripes or create ombre designs using different shades of the same color.
