repainting bedroom furniture with carving help!?
I have a set of bedroom furniture that I've had since the late 80's. Its an ugly laminate with mirrors and carved out designs on half the drawers. How do I refinish this? I took one of the drawers off and have started experimenting on it. I puttied over the carving and sanded it primed it and spray painted it a dark brown to match my new bed. The problem is you can still see the carving through the paint. I want it to look modern and smooth. I am planning on stenciling over the mirrors and have managed to scrap the last bit of gold off them, but I am at a loss with the carving.

- You could try using a wood filler, but you may need a lot if they're really deep and all over the dresser. Make sure to sand it lightly afterwards to get a smoother finish. Or just sand them down as much as possible.
