Alyssa | Furniture Refinisher on Instagram: "Who needs a simple restoration tutorial?

Vintage furniture has a tendency to be worth more money in its original finish. So when I come across one of those high ticket collectibles, I will try my best at restoring it.

This $15 mid-century modern sideboard by Bassett Furniture was a great yard sale find, but it needed a lot of restoration work. I wouldn't consider myself a professional furniture rehabber, but it was the perfect piece of furniture on which I could practice techniques. Low-and-behold, it turned out great. Permanent placement aside, it was in

Here's how I made over this laminatge MCM dresser that I found at a yard sale for cheap!

After cleaning everything and scuffing up the slick surfaces, I primed the laminate with KILZ Restoration primer, painted it with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Oxford Navy and sealed it with Behr Water Based Polyurethane. 

The incredible mid century handles got a little refresh with some Rustoleum Metallic Gold and the legs were sanded back to show off the only wood part of this thing and stained in Minwax Early American penetrating wood stain.

Not too bad for a $5 yard sale dresser, right!?!?
