The MOST Paint I’ve Ever Seen on a Dresser… Furniture Restoration

This restoration may be the most drastic one I ever do. Never in my furniture refinishing days have I seen a dresser with 3 and a half pounds of paint (yes, I weighed it). It’s one of those makeovers where I just love seeing the before and after side by side… I hope you enjoy this video!
