French Provincial Nightstand Modern Makeover

This nightstand is part of a charming French Provincial style bedroom set originally crafted by  Malcolm Furniture  here in Canada years ago. One of my valued customers entrusted me with giving this piece a fresh, updated look. She envisions the entire set transformed into a soothing medium grey, perfectly complementing her new home's décor. Given the nightstand's beautiful, solid construction, it was an easy and rewarding decision to invest in revitalizing this quality piece, ensuring it continues to bring beauty and functionality to its new setting.

Jumbo Golden Chalkboard Frame



Sometimes a piece just needs a new purpose. This faded dated old print was matted in a jumbo  (34"X40") modern gold frame. I could see it so much better as a chalkboard.


To protect the frame I used painters tape


then applied Rustoleum chalkboard paint with a small foam roller


giving it 4 coats (I like to do a few boards at a time) sponge sanding coats after each one dries minimum 4 hours, I also change roller direction with each coat

See other projects shown above finished here; red tray, blue tray, large milk painted frame


Remove the tape and whalaa
