Painted furniture

Reupholstered Farmhouse Stool

This little stool was left at our house by the previous owners. It had seen better days, so I recovered the top with farmhouse fabric, and painted the legs in a steely grey acrylic.

Updated Bedside Table

This little table was very outdated and destined for a landfill. I updated it with a fresh coat of grey chalk paint, paper drawer front embellishments, and new knobs for a more modern look.

Updated TV Table

We’ve all seen those boring bleached pine TV tables. Well I updated this one with black acrylic paint on the legs and refinished the top with jacobean stain for a more modern look.

I picked up these three knotty pine barstools recently (second hand… of course), and painted the bases to match our house shutters. The seats were refinished with Jacobean stain and several layers of outdoor polyurethane so that they’d stand up to the elements in the backyard. Now to convince Matt to build a bar counter top for them…

Painted Cabinet

This knotty pine cabinet was given an overhaul using stock white Benjamin Moore Advance paint. It is a water-borne alkyd paint that provides an extremely durable finish for items like cupboards and trim. I recently used it to update our laminate cabinets in the laundry room and loved the way it covered, so decided to give it a shot on this cabinet that’s destined for Toronto for my client’s son.

Driftwood Coffee table

This curbside find was given new life with a weathered grey stain on the top, and grey painted base.

Updated Shelves

This dated old cabinet with the door missing was cleaned up and given a new look with Sherwin Williams Emerald Urethane in steely gray and a pretty wallpaper background.

Country Dining Set

This country-style dining set was given an overhaul using perception Aspire mineral chalk paint on the legs and seat backs, and espresso Polyshades for the seats and tabletop.

Farmhouse Conversation Set

These mismatched pieces were painted using Aspire mineral chalk paint in wisdom (dark grey), waxed, and embellished with farmhouse themed fabric to make a cute little conversation set.

Inspirational Quote Table

This little table was painted with Aspire mineral chalk paint in prosperity (pale green) then dry brushed with cream and distressed. I stenciled on an inspirational quote just for fun.
