How to Turn an Old Dresser Into Your new Nursery Changing Table

January 9, 2017

I received an email from an expecting mother who was looking for the perfect little changing table for her new nursery.  She had found a small dresser that she was drawn to.  It was already really cute, but she wanted to add a pop of “personality”. 🙂

We decide to go with Annie Sloan’s Paris Grey with a pop of Pure White on the original hardware.

I topped it off with some light distressing and two coats of Annie Sloan clear wax.

How cute is this changing table!!!

Cottage Chic Side Tables

June 14, 2016

I had so much fun upcycling these matching side tables / end tables.  Once dark and a tad dreary…they turned out light and airy!

IMG_4160

The base of both side tables was finished in Rethink Junk’s Robin’s Egg Blue.  I have to be honest…I’m really an Annie Sloan Chalk Paint or General Finishes Milk Paint kinda girl, but a nearby boutique was going out of business and they were basically giving their Rethunk Junk products away.  I grabbed a few neutrals and a few customer favorites like this Robin’s Egg Blue.

IMG_4432

I started off this project by sanding the tops of both pieces down to their original wood finishes with my cordless Ryobi One Sander.  My customer wanted a grey distressed weathered finish, so I used a layering technique with both paint and stain.   I started out by dry brushing two coats of Annie Sloan Paris Grey to both tops.  I then followed up with two coats of my Favorite General Finishes Grey Gel Stain which I applied by wiping on and wiping off.  I then applied a finishing protective coat of Annie Sloan Clear Wax.  I’m so glad I decided to go with the wax!!! It gave each piece the perfect sheen and really brought out the colors and woodgrain.

Once the tops were dry, I applied two coats of Rethunk Junk’s Robin’s Egg Blue to the bases and added a protective top coat of Polyvine Wax like Varnish.  The customer picked out some really cute new hardware that she found at Hobby Lobby.  I added her hardware and the piece came to life!

What a coastal feel these side tables have!!!  Cottage Chic…Shabby Chic…just plain ole Chic!  I am in love with these tables and the customer loved them too!

Large Graphite Black Dresser

April 19, 2016

Out of the blue, I received a phone call from a gentleman looking for a dresser for his new bachelor pad.  He saw one of our ads online and was actually inquiring about a piece that had just recently sold.  He said he was looking for a large dresser and preferred it to be black.  I had the perfect piece in mind! I sent him a picture of one of our larger dressers in inventory and he agreed it was exactly what he was looking for.

FullSizeRender-9

For this dresser, I went with a mixture of 3/4 Annie Sloan Graphite and 1/4 General Finishes Lamp Black. Your probably wondering why the added Lamp Black. Well…I find Annie Sloan’s Graphite to be a gorgeous color, but also one of the hardest of Annie Sloan’s colors to work with if I plan on spraying the piece.  By adding the Lamp Black, the finish seems to be a tad bit richer in color and much easier to spray.

Two coats later and rocking the original hardware!

I’m so happy he agreed to me staining the inside drawers instead of painting them to match the rest of the dresser.   I used General Finishes Java Gel Stain to richen up the already beautiful natural wood.  The end results turned out amazing.
