The fact is welove to make beautiful thingsand furniture is no exception!
You know that feeling, right?
Guess were kind of getting to be known for our upcycling adventures!
The piece hadloads of potentialwith its simple and clean lines, practical size and shape and great overall condition.
I happily and gratefully took it off her hands without a clear plan in mind.
We are always very happy to work withFusion Mineral Painton our furniture upcycling projects.
Weve used their lovely products in the past for ourDIY Nautical Nightstand Makeoverand ourBeach Inspired Dresser Makeover.
We LOVE that the paint comes in see-through, easy to open jars.
Using a damp cloth, wipe away dust and dirt before painting.
Remove all old hardware and cabinet doors.
We removed the back panel of the buffet.
It was really not needed and the paint was turning the surface yellow.
Give the paint jar a good shake.
Begin by applying the paint to all corners and tough to reach spots using an angled paintbrush.
With a roller, apply the paint to the rest of the surface.
Let the paint dry fully before reapplying another coat of paint.
The amount of coats needed will depend on the original surface of your piece.
This made all the difference!
Scale is so important to design and making this one simple tweak, made all the difference.
Consider this option next time you are faced with a similar issue.
The final step is to reattach the cabinet doors and add the new modern ceramic knobs.
I lovethese bright and happy knobs!
The finished piece goes nicely with our rusticDIY driftwood blanket ladder,DIY driftwood wreathand oursmall upcycled storage box.
