Five Inspiring Dresser Makeovers

Today, I am on the hunt for dressers and my two main sources will be Craigs List and thrift stores. I need to outfit our cabin with more storage space and I have in mind antique, unique and ……cheap. I’m not afraid of putting in a little elbow grease to give a piece new life that is custom for my needs.

Before shopping, I thought I would look around for a little makeover inspiration and share some of these ideas here. After all, it always helps to see some good after pictures, before going out to look at some pretty sorry looking furniture, to better visualize it’s full potential!
