Fireman Dresser

For a boy

I never do furniture for boys so I was so excited to do this one. Hands down one of my favorites! 

My inspiration: the hardware.

I had seen a similiar dresser on Pinterest with the red & walnut stained stripes so when I found the hardware I knew it would look amazing together.

Here he is:

I wanted a fireman theme,

but no so "themed" and "kiddish"

that it wouldn't last more than a few years in a room.

I used an oil based enamel paint and added polycrylic to protect it.

Little boys can be rough on furniture so I wanted to ensure it was as protected as possible.
