Rustic Dresser Makeover with Painted Stripes and Leather Pulls

Did you see all the fun details on this dresser? The painted stripes (taken from inspiration found on pinterest), the leather pulls, and the distressed drawers. We got a lot of comments on our youtube video about needing to add rods or dowels between the straps on the bottom drawers. What do you think? Would that look better and be more useful? We're always open to new ideas!⠀ ⠀
