Rehab? For Furniture.

This weekend I will attempt something that many others (who aren't me) have tried and succeeded... Painting old furniture to make it look brand new.

Among the many other things that were left in our house by previous renters was a dresser and matching nightstand. They have served their purpose, but now that this is our house I am going to make the guest room a room and not just a large space for me to toss misc. crap I don't feel like putting away! Yeah, you know you have a room like that too...

I have a very small budget to get this room in tip top shape and hope to do everything for under $250. We are leaving the carpet alone for right now because in the future we will replace all the flooring on the 2nd floor. This will definatly help me to stay on budget.

Here is what the dresser & night stand currently look like. You can see I already started to remove the handles.
