Dresser Makeover w/ Dixie Belle Chalk Paint & Stain

[@kristibrooks967]

Not only is your furniture gorgeous but your name is one of the first beautiful flowers of spring! Muscari 💜

[@avigil9961]

As an educator, I must say that your pace was clear and concise. I enjoyed how you explained each step without too much detail, keeping my attention eagerly, ( even through the ads) all the way to the end. I appreciate your honesty and how you shared your discoveries and even referenced other video sources. And that pop of red lips at the end made me say 'WOW!' out loud waking up my little one early. Thank you Ms. Muscari. I am inspired.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Wow- thank you for the feedback!

[@Saved_By_The_Blood_]

You’re a total stud. I’ve learned so much from your videos. Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@suescott4418]

Beautiful and the drawer pulls made it adorable

[@danaridge191]

Love that you were able to save this piece. I'm a fan of the Dried Sage, but your vision of a lighter color was spot on! Love it!

[@hazelldowdell8541]

Love it, love it, love it! I love how it got new life and continue to serve it's purpose.

[@dmotta2811]

See, you have vision. If I saw that old dresser, I would have never thought you could have turned it into that. It’s so pretty.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you.

[@barbaraherrera3984]

I did watch til the end and I’m really impressed... the color Sea glass turned out great 👍. Plus the drawer hardware completed the look.

[@debbiemelton4426]

I loved the colors you chose and the knobs set it off!

[@beverlynelson599]

Love the beautiful seagrass color! My fav!

[@kathygranholm7064]

Just beautiful! I’m loving working with Dixie Belle. The absolutely the best paint I’ve used so far! Just finished a bedroom set! Feels like a brand new room!

[@jeffreybelanger3723]

Well Done! Amazing transformation, you took what was basically a pile of firewood and gave it a whole new life!

[@sunshinewoodworking1734]

That steel wool tip is everything! Thanks!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

You are so welcome!

[@winsomelorainepeter6773]

Excellent work Christina! What an awesome transformation of the old dresser! You did a brilliant job! Well done! It looks absolutely beautiful.

[@LindaWhaleyKnitStudio]

You've inspired me to find and rescue an old chest of drawers. Love this!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Go for it!

[@isabelordonez369]

Just beautiful, thank you for your contribution to humanity by updating furniture!! Is easy to avoid pollution. Blessings

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks, Isabel!

[@joanmanzella8740]

This project turned out so nice. I have not tried Dixie Belle products but will now. I can hardly wait to go see all of the products that Dixie Belle has! I love Annie Sloan products! That is what I also learned to paint furniture with. I have used some of the Waverley paints because cannot always get Annie Sloan where I live. You do such great videos! Keep them coming.

[@jayc344]

Love the "Rosie the Riveter" look you got going on 🥰! Have been eagerly awaiting the follow up on this piece. The coverage with the first coat of DB paint is seriously like no other! That color is so soothing and pretty.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks, Rosie is my girl! The coverage is really great, and I find it easier to get a smoother look with this paint if that is what you are going for.

[@jayc344]

@@ChristinaMuscari Completely agree. I love the look of texture but have a serious issue with the "feel" of it 🤣, I know I know such an oxymoron 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️!

[@donnatrobaugh1676]

LOVE the sea glass! What a beautiful make over!

[@noorelnot1476]

Love your t shirt, love coffee, love paint furniture and love love love your work

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks so much!

[@susanhayes8422]

Looks great and thanks for providing the info on how to do the distressed project.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

You are so welcome!

[@lindagardener855]

Love the colour. Turned out fantastic👍

[@kimberlygries6517]

that turned out phenomenal! So nice and sleek!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@kristineobrien8878]

Thank you for this video. You showed and explained many of these products extremely well. I’ve tried some of them. I REALLY love the Dixie Belle silk paint;)❤️ The dresser turned out stunning;)!

[@cfaz6763]

That pre taped plastic is nice. Great job!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you!

[@jenniferyeager3596]

Beautiful job - LOVE that color!

[@hxrses_4ever940]

Gorgeous table luv the white coulor very nice

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks so much 😊

[@amurphyvelez]

I just became aware of Dixie Paint and doing my first ever renovation on an old antique buffet table! I will be watching your videos👏👏👏

[@stacym6027]

Same here! Using Dixie Belle for my first project....a vanity table

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Awesome!

[@r.c.miller6161]

Great video. Super informative. Dixie Belle products are top notch.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks, Rena. I'm a fan of Dixie Belle.

[@Amille06]

I think this is beautiful. Great job.

[@lucyterrier7905]

Lovd your tutorials & your hair & make up

[@noOona]

Wow very beautiful😍 النتيجة خيال👍

[@leahben1897]

The sea glass color came out beautiful. Love the dresser, very beachy.. I love how you walk us through every detail of your process and share every tip you have to make sure others get the most out of their future projects. Thank you., It must take so long to put the video together! Filming is very well done...a pleasure to watch.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank, Leah!

[@kellywentling4549]

What a beautiful makeover! Loved watching you paint with 2 colors, haven’t seen that before. I ❤️ this look!!! Great to hear about new products and I’m so ready to order from Dixie Belle!

[@marthaparamo8438]

Me encanto tu video. Hermoso color que has elegido.

[@deborasmith5191]

I loved the makeover you did. It is amazing!

[@jacquelingracias7772]

So beautiful and details ❤️❤️❤️

[@KG-vn4tf]

I absolutely love this piece!! The colors you chose compliment each other beautifully. Thanks for sharing this project!

[@kellyevans8321]

Definitely using Big Mamas Butta on my black chalk paint project. Loved the appeal of that orange fragrance, and the need a stronger protection on the shelving Im painting. Plus, I’m totally going to treat the insides of all over my cherry bedroom furniture to bring back the luster of the wood and improve the wood. Plus... natural room freshener! 🙌🏻

[@patriciacoulombe7690]

De toute beauté ! Un compliment venant du Québec ! Quel talent 😍

[@incendi4ry]

I have always been low-key obsessed with restoring furniture ever since high school; our final project in art class was to restore a wooden chair from a thrift store. It was really fun to do because my mom taught me this Elmer's glue technique for crackling paint. I made the seat cover with new foam and fabric. It turned out very shabby chic - and even though I'm an emo kid at heart, I really love the girly shabby chic style. We auctioned off our finished chairs and donated the money to a local charity. It definitely instilled a restoration bug. I have a dresser in my bedroom that has been waiting oh-so patiently!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Awesome- thanks for the support!

[@loismaddux4800]

Gorgeous!! Great job!!

[@melissajane812]

That was fascinating to watch. Thanks for being so detailed about how and why you things the way you do. I'm so glad you decided on the sea glass color. It came out beautiful!

[@henriettahenson]

Enjoyed watching this... I have many pieces in my house and a couple of chests of drawers have old reclaimed floors boards as the top they look great... 👌I also quite like different mixes of knobs makes it look qiirky 🌈

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks!

[@susanjohnson3973]

Love the Sea glass color, as well as the top's stain - beautifully easy on the eyes, calming to live with:). Exquisite work, gorgeous finish! Thanks so much for showing us:).

[@vickeypierce293]

Gorgeous!! I have been wanting to do this to my side tables in my bedroom...you made me have the courage to finally do it!!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Go for it!

[@thekraftycreech]

this color is fabulous!!!

[@ginadb495]

I just purchased a piece similar to yours and was not sure of what color to use. I love the light colors. Thank you for showing the technique from beginning to end. I am new to refurbishing and this video helped tremendously! Loved your finished project. Well, here I go, just going to dive right in. Hope my piece turns out as beautiful as yours! 🙂

[@cherinelson3436]

All I I can say is......really good job! I had my doubts on this one. You pulled it out. Very nice Christina. Very nice !

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you, Cheri. I had some major doubts at times, too.😂

[@Angel-rv1mt]

Absolutely beautiful.

[@catcar8212]

Hi Christina, your piece came out perfect! As I watched you remove the veneer it reminded me of my grandmother’s mahogany sideboard and how badly it had aged. It’s amazing what you find underneath! Your ability to envision the final look while selecting all the finishes is spot on. When you showed the hardware I almost cried, you picked what was originally on Grandma’s piece! Looks pretty snazzy in your kitchen!!! Just saying, lol ~Hi from Connecticut =^..^=

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Oh thank you!

[@valerie624]

This turned out so beautifully! I love the top especially. You look so pretty in your intro, very 1940s. Love it!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks, Valerie! ❤️ The top is my fav.

[@joanmanzella8740]

I saw this in 10 trash to treasures. This piece is amazing! I love it that you made it into such a beautiful piece! You do such awesome projects! Please keep the project ideas coming!

[@thediymommy]

This is a gorgeous makeover! 😍

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you, Christina!

[@bback4078]

The dresser turned out so pretty!

[@ginamaria2579]

Wow turned out beautiful 👏🏻👍🏻💕

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you!

[@emmasurf8768]

My favorite was the sea glass dresser. I appreciated how to switched colors midstream to get the right effect. I wasn't familiar with Dixie Belle til I relocated where that's the only brand in the shops. It was helpful to see the different top coats especially one being able to waterproof without it looking too glossy.

[@themuddycow2024]

The more I work with chalk paint, the more I want to try my hand at redoing furniture! I currently do small crafts and use chalk paint to paint with, and I LOVE IT!!! I'll have to start small and work my way up.. =) Thanks for this awesome tutorial! I learned a lot!

[@pamdhaliwal8155]

You did super good job, first time watch your video and subscribed

[@bethwishitwereviolet5938]

This is gorgeous.

[@paulettegatlin8105]

First time watching your video. I’ve learned a lot from this video. I’m about to take on redoing my china closet with Dixie belle products. I’ll be watching more videos! Thanks!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Good luck!

[@afolsom685]

Love the colour!

[@crystalsmith1549]

This is the prettiest piece of furniture ,nice job😍😍

[@jenniferprell2873]

This was my inspiration for my first piece thank you so much I have learned so much from you I even have my husband watching your videos 🙏🏻😍

[@salimorton641]

I love this! 5 stars!😊

[@NEILZEE11]

I’m so happy you saved that sweet little dresser and gave it a new life. Quite a bit of work you did, but I love the color and you did a great job. Someone gave me a very old vanity that was actually saved from a house fire, and the laminate is peeling off. I was afraid I would ruin it by removing the rest of it, but now that I saw it could be done, I might give it a try. Thanks...

[@erikamasforroll9666]

OMG! so beautifull really nice job

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you! 😊

[@jennethutchinson5978]

I like your job so much never tired to watch you !

[@tammyjohnson7401]

Really love the stain for top also. Something different. The products seemed to be easy to use. Good luck with sale .

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you. They have a beautiful gray I want to try out as well.

[@riverunner9978]

Just gorgeous!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you! 😊

[@barbgalligan4885]

Gorgeous! ❤️

[@coachdebby564]

Wow!! I love it!! Thank you for the inspiration.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

[@sassysandie2865]

[@ashawthing0520]

[@mihriomar5158]

That's so beautiful

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you!

[@moniqueradford9486]

This is gorgeous Christina, I love the blue colour with the white washed top. I would love it in my home but New Zealand is a bit far!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks, Monique! NZ would be a long journey. 😂

[@michelleschultz6499]

what a beautiful piece!

[@terriberry9401]

Fabulous piece!!! Thank you so much for this video. You've inspired me to do this.

Thank you so much!!

[@maryhappy33]

In love with your videos and tutorials very well explained.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

All the items used in this video are linked in the description box.

[@donnakkasper6634]

You’re near me. I thought I recognized you. Not sure from where but I know your face. This little piece is really pretty. I’ve just begun with Dixie Belle and did a piece last week in Dropcloth.

[@cherylbaker1894]

Cheryl Baker I love your KZbin videos. Want to start a project but must finish my quilt projects first.

[@ashleywright8686]

If you apply a hot clothes iron and place over the damp towel, veneer comes off like butter. Butter, I tell you! 😁👍🏻

[@sharamyers9686]

Ashley Wright I used a similar technique to get old, old Linoleum up from my hardwood floor. Except, I used waxed paper instead..

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Have you watched my video on it? It does work! The best technique for this piece was the damp towel. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6XXiaRpjp2ffZY

[@ashleywright8686]

Shara Myers interesting! Thanks for the tip!🌼

[@heatherstacks8275]

It is the trick for sure!!

[@nikkiwallace3342]

Beautiful piece!!!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@dgdesignsbydenilka5954]

Yes, I just want to drink coffee and paint!!! 🧑🏻‍🎨

[@bjmurr6309]

What a pretty color!

[@trishahutchinson3485]

Beautiful! So informative too!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you!

[@PATangoS_]

I agree that was a nice piece to save. And good paint brushes don't shed. Purdy brushes are worth the couple of bucks extra.
