This guy started school this week, so I was able to bust out this dresser after finally figuring out what to do with it.
His first week of preschool went well and he came home to this in his room!
I obsessed about the hardware on this one. The top drawers measure 3" center to center, but the bottom drawers measure 3 3/4" center to center. The dresser only came with about 75% of the hardware, so I couldn't use that. Buying all new would be pricey...which I didn't mind if we kept the dresser. But when I tried the rope, I just knew it was perfect for a little boy's room.
I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do!

Just beautiful Allison! And those rope pulls are just so much fun!
Allison it's perfection! Love the navy wall against the white and wood. Very good choice with the rope handles, slightly nautical, so boy and I'm pinning.
Clever idea using the rope instead of expensive hardware, little boy like rope much better I am sure, Good job
Lovely! New fresh look!

I love it. What a great contrast for a boys' room!
Beautiful Transformation. A good wooden piece is hard to find and good working drawers are the key. I am in the same boat as you as my kids head to school I have been getting lots of projects done. ~ Lisa

Hope to see you there!
Did you refinish the fronts of the drawers too? The wood grain looks much more pronounced than in the before picture. Love it either way!
This is the perfect dresser for a little boys room. Beautiful makeover!
