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.

Classic Navy Barstools


Paint can make all the difference on a piece of furniture or in this case 2 pieces ;)


The customer wanted her bar stools updated in a deep navy to add some pizzaz to her home.


After a good scrub down with soapy warm water with some TSP alternative to be sure the surface was good and clean, the edges that were a bit chipped over time were sanded. A quick wipe with a clean cloth then the paint was brushed on. I chose Fusion Mineral Paint in midnight blue using my rectangular Cling On brush' perfect for the flat spindles .


Great visual of the difference just one coat of paint makes. Two coats were brushed on in total.


When dry, they were paper bag sanded to give a buttery smooth surface.


And as an added bonus, the seat was wiped with a hemp oiled cloth to add a bit more durability.
