Modernized Pine Dresser in Gray

  If you're a fan of clear coat pine, this makeover might not be your cup of tea. But for those who love breathing new life into old furniture, I hope this tutorial sparks some inspiration! The original clear pine finish has aged over the years, and the tall dresser has endured its fair share of wear and tear. With a little care, attention, and a fresh new color, it now serves a new purpose with renewed charm.

Funny how some plain boring wood chairs can look fabulous with a bit of paint, take this plain boring well used but solid wood dining chair,


and after scrubbing the chair well, give it a coat of this easy to apply all in one paint.

when dry, distress simply with a sanding sponge on areas where wear normally occurs like the seat edges and spindles

 and to add to the aged look, I hand painted with a wee brush white liming details in the crevices



and then to give a bit more durability and shine I put a coat of clear wax over the whole chair and wahlaa, here it is..

wood should NOT be boring, grab a brush and some paint and make it pretty!!
