Paint my beloved, treasured chest of drawers

When approached by my client to refurbish her treasured chest-of-drawers, I was delighted to work on such a beautiful piece of furniture.

I advised the client to preserve the walnut look and only paint the drawers keeping the framework original. Then I painted various colours on similar wood to illustrate how the final finish could look. Once the colour was established I painted the drawers in the selected colour and added the original vintage handles that finished off the piece beautifully.

“Upcycled Chest of Drawers”

I had this chest of drawers that was passed down from my grand mother and it just didn’t fit in my newly designed bedroom. I approached Daniela for advice on what to do.

She found the perfect paint colour to blend in with the existing colour scheme. The chest of drawers was transformed sympathetically keeping the original vintage handles that I really loved.
