What would happen if Aubrey + Lindsay's RAST side table:
had a baby with Bungalow 5 Niagara 3-door dresser?
That was the inspiration I had for this IKEA Rast hack I did for a client.
I started by painting the front of the drawers white.
Charlotte loves supervising my DIY projects :)
I wanted the body black, but stained.. not painted. I used IKEA black wood stain (you can see it in some of the images).
I did two coats of black stain, and then three coats of water based poly.
Here is the after:
The knobs are from Anthropologie.
I couldn't get great pictures - hopefully I can get some better ones when the dresser is in my clients home!
