Buffets, Credenzas, even sometimes dressers, yes those pieces of furniture we have in our dining room other than our dining room table. They serve as a place to hold extra linens and serve ware, provide additional storage needs. Fill an empty wall in the room (lol), and give us a space to create cute seasonal vignettes. One of the pieces of furniture I get asked about the most when it pops up in pictures is the dresser / buffet I have in our dining room. So today I’m sharing the story about this dresser, and 16 farmhouse style buffets for your dining room too!
This dresser was actually a hand-me-down dresser from my mom when I was in high-school. Other than my bed, it was the only piece of furniture I moved out of my parents house with. To say this piece has been with me for a lifetime is an understatement. It was part of my parents first bedroom set, and I remember it so well as kid. It was the first piece of furniture I ever refinished. EVER.
You can see it in the photo above in the background when it was black. Previous to blogging days, I had completely sanded the dresser down and stained it black, back in early 2000’s when black furniture was popular. A few years after I started blogging, and with a few more furniture makeovers under my belt, I decided to take another go at it, and refinish it a bit lighter, and every since then have been so happy with it.
You can read all about my grey washed dresser reveal HERE, and sense this is a hand-me-down piece, I don’t have a direct source for it. However, I have rounded up 16 of my favorite farmhouse buffets, because if I didn’t have the one I do, I would certainly pick one of these. So whether you are looking for one or not, it’s always nice to have a good round up of my favorites, and who knows, maybe one will strike your fancy after all.
