I am so thrilled about this set. I ran across it over a year ago and because life gets in the way of work sometimes I have had to love it in passing. Now that we are getting settled into our new place and life is becoming "normal" {insert laugh} I couldn't wait to get started on these pieces in particular!! With the AMAZING gaudy and chunky handles they have I really wanted to paint them a trendy and somewhat dark shade of gray. Mark Twain House Ombra Gray did the job quite well if you ask me!
I started by removing the original hardware, sanding each piece, priming them, painting them this beautiful shade of gray, sanding them again for an amazingly smooth finish, applying a coat of wax to the tallboy and body of the nightstands and a coat of Polycyclic to the tops of the nightstands for added durability.
These pieces are very heavy and built to last a lifetime. The tallboy dresser stands 59 in. tall {wow} x 40.25 in. long x 19 in. deep. Behind the stunningly detailed doors are three dove tailed drawers that measure 26.25 in. long x 13 in. deep and sink 5.75 in. each. The bottom 2 dove tailed drawers measure 30.25 in. long x 14.5 in. deep and sink 5.75 in. each.
Each nightstand measures 23.5 in. tall x 28.25 in. long x 15 in. deep and has 2 dove tailed drawers that measure 18 in. long x 10.5 in. deep and sink 6 in. each.
These would dress any room up and add character that is sure to be talked about! As always, let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for dropping by ~Kell
