Help! How should I refinish this Drexel dresser?
Comments (26)Yes that’s exactly the same color. I’ll definitely at least polish the hardware as you suggested Beth. Thank you for all of your suggestions. There is a company called The CEH that regularly does this- they started off just refinishing or painting vintage pieces (and do so beautifully) and did really well and now they just started selling their own furniture. For those of you who think refinishing this Drexel piece was criminal, please cover your eyes as you check out the Baker and Henredon pieces they’re selling. This is where I got the idea- they were selling this Edward Wormley for Drexel dresser for $900 including custom paint. www.theceh.com...See MoreHelp!

Comments (30)There is nothing wrong with his dresser. It's a nice piece. All the comments re possibly putting his piece in the closet could also apply to you. If you don't want to match his style, or closely complement it, just get what you want and put your piece in the closet. That way, you will just have his dresser to contend with; and there are a gazillion beautiful darker wood nightstands that would complement his piece. The rest of it, you can keep light - I.e. upholstered headboard, bedding, lamps, accessories, etc. Again, there is absolutely zero wrong with his piece and his taste. You are fortunate that he has agreed to give up a lot of his things to please you. But it is really not fair for you to expect him to give up everything... And I also think you may benefit from expanding your understanding of what quality, classic furniture looks like. Grey wash is already over....See Morewall art dilemma
Comments (11)It shouldn’t be too expensive to move the thermostat and then you could have your dream art arrangement. Especially if you have another ceiling fan to install or light fixture or two to change out. A handyman who does light electrical work could probably do it for you and patch the drywall as well. Why don’t they consider future wall decor when they place those things :)...See Morelooking for dresser
Comments (2)I actually like dressers and night tables to kind of go together and the bed can be quite different.To mee the night tables look very cluncky next to that bed I would probably look for a dresser I really loved with some matching night tables . probably metal and if at all possible a wood that worked with the small amount on the bed...See MoreRelated Professionals
