In this video I show you how to restore an old Mid Century Modern Dresser. This dresser was built by my great grandfather and passed down through my family to me and my wife. It needed a little help, so I refinished it. This was my first restoration project. I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you for simply restoring it's original color instead of painting it white or bleaching the wood! I am shocked by the amount of popular restoration videos that take a beautiful old piece of wooden furniture and make it look like ikea furniture. Wood is beautiful, let it show!

Great job on this project! It turned out great. I liked the fact that you added your own touch and created your own drawer handles. It added a more "modern" style to the furniture.

I like the new feet that you installed, they're high which makes it easy to clean the floor underneath and keep out the dust bunnies.

It's Made by Mitch time! Great restoration, man. I did a very similar process with an old cedar chest that my wife had as a kid. Sanded it all down, redid the finish, put on new hinges for the lid, etc. Don't you feel even more proud restoring something that's been in the family for years? Again, awesome job! I always look forward to your videos. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@MadebyMitch
@MadebyMitch 6 лет назад
Thanks Austin. That sounds really cool with the cedar chest. It is a pretty cool feeling to keep something going in the family. Definitely a lot more meaning and purpose to it than a normal project. Thanks man👍🏻

What is the best sander/sanding machine you'd recommend to buy? Great video I need to do a similar restoration.
@DanielleMcLean21
@DanielleMcLean21 3 года назад
You made this look so fun and easy, but I'm sure it was a ton of work. Thanks for the helpful guide. I'm planning on starting my own restoration project soon, once the weather gets a bit nicer.

I have an old dresser (1940s maybe?) of my grandmother's. It's peeling - almost line it has very thing paneling on it. It's a bit unsightly now with all the peeling, so can I sand it and refinish it? I'd love to keep it. It's a beautiful dresser, but the peeling is horrible. Any advice would be great!

Looks beautiful, great job! I'm about to refinish my first dresser and am wondering how long it will actually take to sand it down? You mentioned a long time, but how long do you actually mean? Thanks!
@MadebyMitch
@MadebyMitch 5 лет назад
Thanks Jennifer! Depending on the size, I would say 3- 5 hours would be a good guage. A lot of my sanding was in small 30 minute sessions so it took a while. It also depends on what kind of finish you are sanding off. Hope this helps. Good luck !

That Minwax stain as are most stains, is not meant to be left on the wood. It is made to be wiped off. It can take months to dry if you dont.

I used Titebond ii wood glue.
