Kitchen Dresser

I have a lovely old kitchen dresser which I definitely want to keep, but it had a dark wood veneer sort of look about it which I felt was due for an update.  It especially didn't work against the dark jarrah floorboards, so seeing as I seem to moving towards a country farmhouse kind of look, I figured white...of course!

I forgot to do a "before" shot before I started

I removed all the fussy bits of trim with the jigsaw, then covered up the bench part with newspaper and painter's tape.

Then the whole thing got a coat of stain blocking primer then 2 coats of water based enamel.

I've put some of the Angora Blue in the wings (doors still to come), but I'm not sure about it.  I've only done one coat so I won't do a second until the doors are finished and I've done the other shelves in the room.

The fluro light isn't very flattering, but I really like the dark handles against the white.

And ... here is the beginnings of the plate rack I'm making for the middle.
