Cute Nightstand needs some help!


My parents bought up this nightstand when I mentioned I was looking for one.  I love the shape and that its wide but not too wide.  My camera battery was dead so these pictures were taken on my Iphone, haese the not great quality.  The top of the night stand is all stripped/needs work and I am thinking of getting new knobs.  The only thing is I need help deciding what I should do to this dresser!  
Some ideas are listed below. 



1. The picture above is of a dresser that has been stripped which I love because it brings out the natural & rustic charm. Judging from the top of my nightstand, I think it would come out pretty.



2. The dresser above was stripped then the drawers were stained a dark walnut color while the rest of the dresser was painted.  This would also be another rustic option.  I could paint the top, sides, & legs of the night stand then stain the drawers.

3. The last idea is to sand the nightstand, paint it either an off white/flat white (or really any color!), then use an antique glaze to give it some age.  

What do you think?  Also do you have any other ideas?  I would love to hear them!
