The creator behind@saltandhoney_reclaimedsanded down a secondhand Hemnes dresser to remove the existing dark stain.
You could use a scallop stencil if free-hand drawing isnt your thing.
Jennifer from@jennifer_abigailchose the cutest heart-shaped handles that she found on Etsy.

He painted the dresser black and made some angular pine legs to create a clean, pared-back look.
The combination of black and pine is ideal for any minimalist interior.
She then stained the dresser for a warm oak finish.

This isnt a quick hack but you will end up with a one-of-a-kind dresser.

Not every hack needs hours of work.
This simple yet striking transformation involved just some paint and new leather drawer pulls.

Helen fromBeautyillhad an old black Hemnes dresser that didnt fit with her lighter-colored decor.
So instead of replacing it she did a quick transformation and it looks completely different.
After giving it a makeover, it looks brand new.

For this look, she started by sanding the dresser down and painting it with some mineral paint.
For contrast, she white-washed the wooden dresser top and finished it with rattan handles for a little texture.
Thats what Renee from@pompousclockwas aiming for with her Hemnes hack.

Classic Oak Look

Oak furniture is expensive, especially large pieces like dressers.
Katelyn from@makeityourhomefound a way to get the look without the expense.
She used some very heavily watered-down paint and completed the look with some wood wax.

No one would guess that this isnt oak.
Its not just the pretty design but also the vibrant colors that make thisIKEA dressera standout piece.
Simple, sophisticated and unrecognisable!

Shaded Pink

This shaded pink dresser fits right into this adorable circus-themed nursery.
Keeping the frame white makes the drawers pop even more.
Leaving the frame of the dresser white creates a subtle yet stylish contrast against the wood.

So she got the look by gluing on some overlays and adding crystal drawer pulls to create the look.
She finished the drawers in a dark walnut stain and added some traditionally styled brass hardware.
Slim brass handles completed the look of this designer-looking dresser, that she transformed on a budget.

Annika from@mrs.schallis.paintedfurniturewanted a rustic, slightly aged look for her salvaged Hemnes dresser.
With a mix of traditional accents and modern touches, this dresser would work in a range of spaces.
So if you’re a beginner DIYer, this could be the Hemnes hack for you.

Erika fromPeony and Honeycame up with a clever solution which also meant that no power tools were needed.
She also trimmed the top of the dresser to remove the overhang which gave it a morecontemporary look.
