How do I refresh this beautiful dresser??
I found this Ace-Hi dresser at a thrift store this weekend and am madly in love, but there’s some wear and tear I’d like to clean up - if I can do it without ruining the piece. I’ve done any kind of restoration or refinishing so I need advice!
There are some scratches and discoloration on the top - I don’t mind the discoloration but I’d really like to fix up the scratches. I’m hesitant to sand it at all because the stain (or lacquer?) is so pretty and I’m afraid I won’t be able to match it, but is that the best option?
Then one of the legs is broken - still sturdy and I don’t think it will get worse but is that fixable?
Aaaand the back is falling off - do I just staple it back on? Nail it?
Also looking for any maintenance tips! This is now the nicest thing I own and I’d really like to keep it that way haha.
Thanks friends!
