Paige from North Arlington bought this cool old vanity from us about a month ago and when I dropped it off in Ira she was talking about her ideas for how she was going to refresh it. They sounded amazing so I asked her if she would send me some “after pics” to share on the blog with all of you. I shared with me what she used for this refresh:
|
PAIGE : I used 2-3 coats Behr paint/primer in Edgy Red and a zillion coats (okay, maybe 3) of Minwax water-based Polycrylic protective finish. While I probably only coated the entire thing 2-3 times with the top coat, I gave the top counter area a few extra coats because I wanted it to be really glossy and easy to clean my makeup spills off of.

The pics just came in, thanks for sharing Paige! If anyone else either buys a piece of “raw” furniture from us and refreshes it or buys some chalk paint from us and does a piece we’d LOVE to share it with our followers!
Here is Paige’s SASSY new red vanity!
