I
know I know…it is the ‘new’ thing and we don’t want to over do
it….but…it’s just so fabulous that I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to
chat about furniture dipped in paint!!!!
Easy to do and easy to change back when you get sick of it!
Some quick tips:
Step 1: Grab a piece of furniture you’re wanting to pretty up. A chair might be the easiest to start with.
Step 2: Choose your paint and go to your local
hardware store to buy it – glossy paint is always best, find the best
quality neon/pastel acrylic paint you can. Depending on the type of
furniture spray paint might be the best and most convenient option (and
more fun!).
Step 3: Put tape where you want you’re your new colour to start (make sure your under coat is well and truly dry before you do this).
Step 4: Now, go to town and enjoy….feel free to use a
sponge to spot the paint onto your piece and touch up with a brush
later to avoid heavy brush strokes
TIP: Check antique or op shops for older chairs or stools that you can play around with.
You will always find a place for something you love!!!
