Another furniture makeover with pics

I have a huge blank/empty wall in my family room and i havent done anything with it until now. I purchased this dresser/sideboard/buffet off craigslist for $80! i painted it with a mixture of annie sloan's antique white and french linen. i spray painted the hardware black. it was a pain in the butt to paint, but the results were so worth it! these pictures dont do this piece any justice, it's soo pretty in person and i'm so happy with how it turned out!! I also made the framed music sheets by using burlap and painting frames that i bought from joann's.

Re: Another furniture makeover with pics

I am beyond impressed! Are you sanding these pieces down first? Or are you just priming and painting? It just seems like so much work!

it was a lot of work, im not gonna lie. the type of paint that i used does not require any sanding or priming, which was awesome.
