Before...
After! :)
I purchased the paint for this project at a little antique store called Homewood Antiques and Marketplace. I love to browse through that store any chance I get! The paint itself is called Bungalow Custom "No Prep" Paint. The mint green paint hue is called "Emily" and the grey color, in being true to its Alabama heritage, is called "Vulcan". It requires no sanding; you simply make sure that you are applying it to a clean surface and, voila! You have a complete furniture transformation in no time. In my experience, it takes a couple of coats to achieve complete coverage. It is recommended that once the paint has dried, you apply a wax coat with Minwax Polycrylic Protective Finish or something comparable. After I finished painting, I put on some cute new knobs I found at my local HomeGoods store. When all was said and done, I ended up spending about 4 hours and $40 for the entire redo. Most definitely worth it, considering how adorable it turned out! I'm excited to use this awesome product again soon!
