Hey all! I’m super excited to show you my latest furniture flip, this Mid Century Modern Dresser Makeover! I was recently contacted by a local friend, Nicci, A Farmhouse Full. Nicci was in the process of redoing her master bedroom and I helped her with making a few design choices as well as redoing this dresser. I’ve only done a few mcm makeovers, so I was pretty excited to do another one. The classic lines, awesome legs, and pretty wood gets me every time!
