PAINTED MID CENTURY DRESSER spanish console

 
 
I thought this dresser looked very Spanish these four arches across the front,
so I nicknamed it the Spanish Console.
 
It almost looks like 12 small drawers but it really is only 6 drawers, 3 on each side.
I changed the original hardware for mini ceramic knobs hand made in India.
 
 
I opened the center up for a shelf by taking out 3 center drawers and painting inside.
I worked on this piece in sections and over a few weeks because Im very limited with space
so it is hard for me to work on a piece that is 71" long effectively.
 
I added wonderful large loft style castors so it would move easy and look great.
I saved the warm walnut finish on top and found a matching shelf for inside.
 
It was used as a TV console before I got it so the transformation into a Media Center only made sense.
BEFORE                                            AFTER
I dont have a loft space to photograph it in but try to imagine how magnificent it would be
in that kind of home.
