Painted Dresser Nightmare! Did I make a mistake with this one? #furnitureflip #furniturerestoration

This black painted Dixie dresser furniture flip was a mess. I think it was sprayed painted without a primer because the paint was just flaking off. I stripped one drawer and was smitten with the beautiful wood. That made me want to try a full refinish. There were many challenges, especially with the top. After stripping it three times, I finally got it! If I were to do it over, I think I would have just stained it dark. What do you think?
