DIY Furniture Makeover: TALLBOY Upgrade with WRAPPING PAPER

For this furniture makeover, I found this cute vintage tallboy dresser for $35 at Goodwill and knew I could do something a little different using wrapping paper! I'm always trying to figure out how to add color and patterns to furniture and this cute tallboy was a perfect opportunity. It's a perfect blend of elegant and playful, my favorite combo.

This makeover seems straightforward but there are always surprises popping up. This week we encountered:
- Bleedthrough after priming
- Filling extensive large surface of wood grain to create a smooth, uniform surface

//SUMMARY
In this week's furniture makeover, I paint a vintage tallboy dresser with Benjamin Moore Advance paint and add wrapping paper to the front. The makeover process includes cleaning, sanding, repairing, priming, stain blocking, painting, and adding the paper detail. I ran into some bleeding and wood grain that I wanted to remove and pivoted to make those repairs.
