I’ve never met a piece of furniture I didn’t want to paint
What can I say?
Painted furniture is my jam…

Chalk paint, distressed chalk paint, milk paint, chippy vintage paint — all of it!
WHITE
Although I have a buffet that’s going to be bound for a coat of gray paint here in the near future!
Several people have commented about a cute little table from my last post so I thought it would be fun to show you some of the many pieces that have been at the mercy of my paintbrush lately
This is the little table before (Actually I think it’s a plant stand. It belonged to my mother-in-law)

Cute shape but I really wasn’t loving the oak
So I did this

I whitewashed the top and painted the legs
What a difference huh?
And there’s a lot more!
From this….
To this
We actually made new doors and added beadboard before we painted. See how the post HERE
This writing table and chair before
And now
The top on this table is whitewashed. See the transformation HERE
And this Target bookcase went from this…
To this
We added the whitewashed shiplap to the back too. Read all about that HERE

My desk used to look like this…
But a little paint, some base molding and a new top and now I have this

When I needed something on my side of the bed, I took this…
And with a little chalk paint and some sandpaper, I got this
This is one of my favorite painted pieces
It’s a pine dresser that had turned orange as pine will often do. This was the first time I ever used chalk paint. I don’t have a before because I did it before I started blogging

Once I saw the transformation I was hooked
And I never looked back
I’ve painted everything from picture frames…
To books…
To accessories
To lamp shades
And I’m here to tell you
If you don’t like something you have
Or the color doesn’t appeal to you anymore
Don’t be afraid to put a coat of paint on it
You might just end up loving it!
