Sometimes we want a change in our bedroom, but this does not necessarily mean that we need new bedroom furniture. Yet, that old dresser has been rustic-mahogany since the day you first moved into this house! That was before you had your first child… so, if you have come a long way since you first bought that dresser, then it might be time for a change. There are all kinds of ways to change how your bedroom furniture looks without needing to buy new stuff. Why would you want to do this? Well, in time and materials, you will pay a ton less than you would on a new dresser… so, a penny saved is a penny earned, right?

Refinishing your dresser might be a good idea if you have the time, the tools, and the means of doing so. What all does this process entail? Well, here is a brief rundown of what you can expect.

First, you are going to have to remove the finish that was on the dresser before (note: this is not necessary if you simply plan to paint over the existing finish… but for any kind of stain or lacquer, this is very important). This can be accomplished with a sander or sandpaper.

Nest, you will need to make sure that you select the right stain for your dresser. Make sure you test the stain you buy on a piece of scrap wood first so that you do not find out that it is the wrong color! Then, all that is left is to apply the stain. Once you have applied the stain, simply get a lacquer finish put on (if applicable). You can also do this yourself with wipe-on poly if you do not possess the tools to apply a spray-finish, though spraying will reap far better results than wiping or brushing will.
