Up cycling and personalising furniture is so much easier and cheaper than you think
I recently re worked this stunning set of draws from my bedroom and it was so simple.
I have used this look on bookcases and tables also, its a quick way to give old furniture a makeover.
antique furniture has an elegant style and when painted white leaves you with a lovely shabby chic look. Painting furniture often works out cheaper than furniture you will buy from high street shops and no one will ever have the same as you!!
have a go!
Annie sloan chalk and wax brilliant for any vintage look.
depending how how dark the wood is will depend on how many coats you will need - I used two for this.
handles in keeping with your look make all the difference.

Hiya, just stumbling on your beautiful blog. I was wondering if this white paint would work!
ReplyDeleteThis white paint does work yes, it is used on the draws in the picture, it is a chalk paint so drys very quickly but gives a lovely finish!
DeleteThankyou for looking :)
