When we moved into our new house this summer we bought all new furniture for the whole house except our master bedroom. After living in the new house a few months we realized our three year old furniture was looking a little rough & something had to be done about it. Being the ambitious person I am, I decided I was going to re-do the whole set. Wow! What a project. Half way into re-doing the whole set I wondered what I had got myself into, it was so much work. We have a king size bed, two dressers, & a nightstand that had to be painted. After two weeks & working 50 hours at my job on top of finishing the furniture, it was finally done! I didn’t realize what a big change it was until I looked back at the before pictures that were taken by my best friend the week we had moved into the house. Enjoy the Before & After Photos….
The final result…
I painted many layers of different shades of white on the furniture & gave it a subtle antique distressed look.
Before….
The new light color of the furniture brightens up the whole room & makes it look completely different. I was scared at first for such a dramatic change, but I have fallen in
Love.
