    I have that very dresser. Found it in a barn of property we bought in 1984. Still in the same condition I found it. It may be time for an update.
    I’ve always liked the nicks and dings and scratches. It has been in my living room since I found it. Half the veneer gone and third drawer won’t open. Never has. I’m retired now and all the kids and grands are gone.
    It’s her turn.

    I suggest using a dryish brush to dab paint on the stencil areas..keeps paint from running under edges of the design. Also it is good to use 3 colors (dark, medium,light) for the design...gives depth and interest that keeps the eye moving instead of just an unlively flatish look.

    I think this piece brought out your creativity! It may have taken more time and energy, but it is my favorite of all the flips you've done! It's the one I'd actually enjoy in my own home. I don't enjoy pieces that look like they came from a furniture store. It's well loved antiques with great patina or painted with charm for me ( and also the market I live in - Mid Atlantic region). Since this is your business and not a hobby, I get that you have to pivot and generate alternatives when executing plan A is no longer a wise decision. What rule says plan B or even C isn't even better! I think this project proves that point. This project also proves function can also be beautiful! Kudos for giving this old piece a new life.

    Also, some thing I find a little bit easier than doing a paint wash, is using a white wax over raw wood. And I apply it kind of like it to paint wash and go ahead and rub it in and then wipe it right off. And that also adds a little bit of extra protection. that’s how I prefer to do any pieces that I have that I am able to strip there, and it gives it this really bleached wood look. Then if I put a stain over the white wax, it makes it look really aged and weathered like reclaimed wood. Just don’t do this to walnut. It goes a weird purple grey color. It works best on Pine and maple. And it’s the only way I’ve found to make mahogany stay light.

    If you strike out with one brand of stripper try another. You can also use oxalic acid to even out the dark areas, which would allow you to achieve a lighter stain or paint was effect that is more even. I think your piece turned out great.
