I built 2 of these mainly out of leftover lumber from our house remodel. My wife wanted a master bedroom with a “beachy” feel. Once constructed, I stained the dresser and drawers. I then primed and painted, leaving the insides of the drawers stained. In my opinion, I got a little carried away with the sanding to show the stain through the paint but I later built a headboard to match that wasn’t quite as distressed. The top is filled with sand and sea glass from the beach in Hawaii where we got married. The next project is to build a chest of drawers to match!
