Vintage Dresser

Here is a beautiful 6 drawer dresser done in ASCP Old White and Duck Egg Blue, then dark waxed to help give it an aged feel. This dresser is one that my dad found in a thrift store in Utah and brought it all the way here. That's love.

I have been getting a lot of e mails asking me about A.S.C.P. and how to use it. (By a lot I mean like more than 2 that aren't family, really this website has only been up like a week). In the next day or two I will be working on doing my first tutorial and it will go over what I have learned through experience and searching the web.

  14. I can't tell in the photos but did you leave the laminate top showing or did you paint it?

    1. I painted the top for sure. It is the same duck egg blue as the rest of the dresser.
