Updating a Classic

The story behind the dresser in our bedroom 

is that my Father in Law got it back in 1930 something

We've had this dresser for over 25 years

and my husband used it everyday when he was growing up

I'm sorry that I don't have a before picture 

but trust me when I say that it was in need of an update
but
A quality piece of furniture never goes out of style
A little paint and new hardware

can transform a classic piece of furniture

I had to really talk my Husband into letting me paint it 

of course, my favorite color,

Black

but I added these really pretty glass knobs that I found at Home Depot

that just sparkle when the sun comes into the bedroom

Now, this is and has always been my Husband's dresser

although, he does allow me to put some of my things on top of it 

I do not have anything in this dresser

And

He has a tray on top of the dresser for the items that come out of his pocket

which, he swears is going back in his pocket the next day

which, never seem to.......

This dresser is not perfect

one of the glass knobs will occasionally come loose

and it still has some dings in it

but it has been such a part of our home for so many years

that I truly cannot imagine us without it

It is our comfort dresser

How about you - do you have comfort furniture?

I am joining the fun over at Kim's Boring to Better Party

Thanks!
