Dresser for my Brother

My brother needed a dresser set. I didn't take any before picture but, I wish I did. My mom bought these dressers in 1974. It had about a million huge scratches and gauges. It took hours and hours of sanding it. Not to mention the all the sand paper I went through. I used the electric sander and for days my arms were sore. I had to stain it after sanding it. I'm really happy how rich of a color it turned out.
The drawer pulls use to be gold with some rusting on them. I gave my brother the option to either buy new drawer pulls or spray paint them. The spray paint and clear protector cost about $10 versus $50-$100 to purchase knobs and pulls.
After they were done I had a few people stop and ask if they're for sale.
