I was talking with my friend who wants to update her master bedroom and her style is coastal meets modern (love!) and she was saying she could use a new dresser in .

Ombre Stained Dresser This dresser is one of my Craigslist finds from last week.
It’s an incredible piece.
The wood has an incredible grain, it’s solid and dovetailed, pretty much it’s the piece that you hope for every time you hit a garage sale. I bought them from a sweet family who just went here and didn’t have a place for these in their new home. It was their grandmother’s dresser and I could tell that it meant a lot to the family. When I picked it up she questioned me if I was going to paint it and she had this look in her eye, nearly like she sought after to question me not to. I told her I had some thoughts involving mostly stain and she looked visibly relieved. She told me her grandmother was very traditional, but was a small assorted at times. I really could tell she was emotional about selling it so I promised her I would try to make her grandmother pleased with the finished product.
So I used the Ombre style…but with stain.
I’m thrilled with how it turned out. I like stain. I like the warmth it emits and the way the wood grain shows through. I like combining a current trend (ombre) with classic stain.
Here he is before, just as a reminder.
He sold at the Barn Sale this past weekend to the cutest mom who was going to use it in her son’s room.
PS I sent the family I bought it from a picture of it’s updated look. They loved it and felt like their grandmother would have loved it too. I reckon that makes me the most pleased; knowing that I was able to keep some of the integrity of the piece and the owner it originally came from. :)
PS This piece was featured on Apartment Therapy this week!
