Coffee Table REDO

I bought this coffee table for $8 off our local Facebook garage sale page.

Plain boring coffe table with a scratched top

Unscrew top from base

Sand top

Wipe off all the dust

 Paint top-Wish I would have primed first because I ended up having to do 3+coats

Primer-waterbased!

Prime base, let dry then spray paint 

 Screw the base and top back together! (I also did a polycrylic spray on the top)

 Coffee table redo!

Mirror Makeover with Chalk Paint

I got this mirror at a thrift store for $4.60 a year or two ago and have been meaning to paint it. A little homemade chalk paint and some distressing it's complete.

Girls Desk and Bookshelf REDO

After being pregnant and dealing with some family health issues I'm happy to say I'M FINALLY BACK TO PAINTING FURNITURE!!! :)

Here are my first projects back.

I got this desk and chair at the local Dig n Save thrift store. I want to say the desk was $4 and the chair, $2. I love the desk because it opens up for storage. The bookshelf I got at a garage sale for $5 and it's wood except for the back piece. 

Boring beat up desk

Homemade chalk paint

Tape where legs meet desk

Chalk paint legs and let dry. Top with furniture wax after completely dry. Let air out in garage or outside after wax because it really smells.

Finished!

Basic kids chair

Primed with Zinsser 1,2,3 spray primer

All done!

Dresser

Sanded dresser. Wipe down with a cloth to remove dust.

Spray paint. Let dry. Top with furniture wax, let air dry. Add books :)
