I purchased this campaign dresser from Craig's List. I love the color peacock and was waiting for the right piece to come along. I thought this piece in my entryway would look good in a bold color. I chose Martha Stewart's Plumage color matched in Behr's Paint and Primer in One. I gave it a final coat of Minwax Polycrylic for protection.
I used Rub 'n Buff in Antique Gold on the hardware. Rub 'n Buff works wonders; it's truly magical.
Before.
After.

I have to try this Rub n Buf stuff! I keep reading about it...must find some! Great looking piece. I just finished my own.
You did a great job. I love Craigslist.
Where did you find the Rub n Buff, I also keep reading about it and can't find it.
:) Michelle
Super cute! Love the color blue on it too. I loved your last blue piece...maybe it's my fav color :-)
I love this! The color is perfect.
What a wonderful transformation! I like to think I've got a pretty good eye - but I probably would have passed this one up based on the before. Way to go.
Can you say..
LOVELY!!!!!!
Another fabulous makeover Katie

Fantastic transformation. Love the color and the hardware. It looks like a completely different piece of furniture, but then that is the point, right? lol
LOVE this piece. Nice work!!!
Fantastic! I have this campaign chest stored many season's in my garage in a glossy apple green (children's playroom). Wonder if I could strip & repaint? Apt to have funky garage storage scent...kids are in 40's! Will paint-strip help?
I love it! Great job again Katie! That is a lovely shade of blue!

Wow, that is amazing! I never seem to find good-stuff like this dresser in my small town (area) of NW IL. It's like everyone wants "fixed up" prices for their broken things because they know people search for "before" stuff to redo.
Nice job!
Visiting from Nifty Thrifty Tue linky party at Linda's Coastal Charm today

That dresser is gorgeous!
I love the color and now I feel the need to paint something peacock.
Thanks for the inspiration!

You have done a great job on the chest of drawers and mirror. Interesting way you have trimmed it - I really like it. Very clever. I have just posted a reborn shabby chic chair on my blog today - I really enjoyed doing it. What is your next project?
I heart this!
Love this! My mom has a campaign chest that I'd love to see her do something similar with. Thanks for the inspiration!
Super charming! I love the color and finish on this- it's fabulous! Thanks so much for sharing at Feathered Nest Friday! :)
I loved this project from the first moment I saw it. Thanks so much for linking it up to my party so my readers could enjoy it too!
Warmly, Michelle
I featured your fantastic looking chest today at Mod Mix Monday at ModVintageLife.
This is an AMAZING piece. You did a fantastic job! I love the color.
Oh my! I'm honestly impressed. You did such a wonderful job here. Perfect color choice ;)
Love the campaign dresser!
Great find! I've been searching for a piece to paint that exact same color. No luck yet, though! Yours turned out beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
Wow! Love the color, I almost painted my soon to be cloffice that color but it was showing up so dark on my wall. It doesn't look dark at all on your dresser. Beautiful choice!
truly gorgeous. LOVE. Do you think this would be a fun paint color for the back of my shelves in my master closet? I wanna do something fun! xo shel
It is a stunning piece - gorgeous color and contrasting hardware. Great job! Linking up via Roomspiration.
The color on this is wonderful! I love the hardware as well, it makes the piece for sure. Good job!
This is so beautiful! Great job. Thanks for posting!
I am featuring you tomorrow during Sticer Time!
Thank you so much for visiting my party!
