shutter privacy screen makeover with Home Right finish max sprayer

"Spray It Pretty"

This Months  The Fab Furniture Flippin' Contest® contest is sponsored by Homeright

So for my piece I chose to use the finish max sprayer on a shutter privacy screen that was picked up at a yard sale for $10! It started out looked pretty dirty and it was just time for a update

Buffet in Hollow Hill

Today I going to share a makeover of a buffet that needed a little tlc, There was scratches all over it and part of the handle was broken, but it was a great piece and super heavy and solid wood. This is what it looked like before!

I used one of Country Chic's paint newest fall colors called Hollow Hill on the piece. It is a dark green and just works perfectly for this buffet. 

Vintage Flour Sack Fabric & A Chair

we found this old chair at a long yardsale and its very 70's, 80ish chair and very orange but  This is how it started out...

Dirty, and orange colored wood with fabric that is so outdated it is faded.. So when a new store opened up near by I went to check it out and found a vintage flour sack that was already cut on one end and opened up.. 

FAB FURNITURE FLIPPIN CONTEST: Velvet Finishes

Have you ever had a piece of furniture that you started painting and get it all painted then your like well that is to plain and it needs something more. Well that is how it started with this little night stand. I was just going to paint it all white and distress it well that is not how it always goes, so this how it started.

This months contest works out really well for wanting to add a pop of color to something. This months sponsor is Velvet Finishes but all opinions are 100% mine!

The Farmhouse Vanity

Today I have a make over of a vanity. It started out in pretty rough shape it didn't have the mirror that came on it, and there was some peeling veneer on the sides and the wood was so dry and it just needed helped. Sometimes when you get a piece of furniture you know what your going to do with it then when you start it, it don't go as planned? well this is how this one started out...

As you can see it needed help.  I sanded down the places that needed it and got it as smooth as I could for painting, I added two coats of Vanilla Frosting to get good coverage. 

Farmhouse Feed Sack Chair

You ever see a piece of furniture and just automatically know how you want to re-finish it?  That's how it was with this chair, it was found at a 10 mile long yard sale just sitting there waiting to be picked up and re-loved. It's just a basic brown chair but with awesome turned legs at the bottom and a horrible red fabric! I got it for a steal. So it started out like this...

I chose Country Chic's Paint in Vanilla Frosting for this chair. Used 2 coats for a good coverage then...

I let it dry enough til was tacky and used a wet rag to distress it in areas that I wanted, I went for heavily distressed so it had a more farmhouse look as for seat I decided to use this vintage feed sack that once help turkey feed in it for the fabric. Which I also found at the 10 mile long yard sale! 

After I did all of that I sealed the chair natural wax and added the seat back to the chair!

This chair would be perfect or a farmhouse! and could go with a lot of decor!

Entertainment Center Gets an Update

 Today I am going to share a makeover of a entertainment center that I found at a yard sale.This is how it started out...

Solid black and kinda glossy and very dusty and dirty. It had a cute farmhouse kinda style to it so I decided to paint all in Country Chic Paint in color called Harmony. Well after I had it all painted except for the doors and the drawers I decided to paint it two toned.

So for the base of this piece I painted it in two coats of harmony and did the drawers and doors in cheese cake!

It is the perfect contrast of colors and still gives it the farmhouse feel. After it all got painted I distressed it pretty heavily in areas to give it a older feel, almost chippy in places on the doors.

After all of that I finished the piece in natural wax. And I styled it more as a storage piece than as a entertainment center cause it can be used more than to just hold a t.v!
