So at the risk of sounding like a complete nut job I am posting another furniture redo.I found this nightstand at the Will yesterday for $6.00. It was in great structural shape but finish wise it was its usual disaster. Yucky once again.
I had picked up Napoleonic Blue by Annie Sloan a couple on weeks ago. I knew I wanted to paint a nightstand for Sam's room so I had it just sitting there, waiting.
He does have another nightstand on the other side unpainted, but I wanted to practice on a less expensive piece of furniture. Wanted to make sure that I like the color in his room. The pictures to make it look a brighter that it actually is.
This time I just painted, distressed very little with a sanding block and put 2 coats of lacquer.
Used the same hardware just cleaned it up with a wire brush.
There is a headboard for this bed but it is out getting repaired. It was slightly damaged in the move.
The lamp on the left is a Will redo, I posted about it here . The lamp on the right I redid today also. Picked it up today at the Will for $4.00. Ran to Lowe's and bought a shade for $14.99. Brought it all home, spray painted it and there you have.
I am telling you people, it does not take a lot of time.
It takes even less money.
Very nice, again!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa. Now I just need to do the other!

ReplyDeleteI love the Blue Krista, it goes well with the room and the lamps. Are you going to purchase the headboard or is it too big? I think it would look good with the nightstands. Truthfully, I have no confidence what so ever in myself to do that with furniture. It's a shame because I have several old pieces that would look sooo nice with a redo!!
