Here is another of the reloved wooden bowls done in a farmhouse finish, such a great update I think :)
First step a good scrub with Dixie Belle white lightening cleaner in warm soapy water, rinse and let dry.
To avoid possible bleed thru I applied Dixie Belle BOSS on all 3 bowls on ALL sides. It goes on white as shown on the jumbo round at bottom but dries clear as shown on the top 2 bowls.
Dixie Belle paint in drop cloth; my favorite warm white was brushed on again on all sides.
Two coats were applied wet distressing after each coat with a Dixie Belle sanding sponge. All sides were then lightly sanded to ensure a smooth surface.
Dixie Belle's best dang wax in clear was hand rubbed in on all sides followed by the brown wax to highlight areas and age the bowl for a further farmhouse feel.
