This is a set of drawers I got for free and I spent the weekend sanding the old grey paint off of them before giving them a couple of coats of clear varnish. They are for my daughters room and she loves them

Re: Chest of drawers restoration

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Torza. It's brilliant to have you join us, and many thanks for sharing this remarkable project.

 

It's awesome that you've restored this unit. As much as I appreciate a coat of paint to bring furniture new life, there's something magical about unveiling hidden timber, especially if it has such a beautiful grain as this.

 

I can see why your daughter is chuffed with her new drawers. They look amazing!

 

Well done, and I can't wait to see what you get up to next.
