Master Bedroom Furniture Makeover

The furniture painter is finally getting around to painting her own bedroom!

This is what my bedroom furniture looked like for the past 20 years... 

I've painted enough furniture for everyone else... it's my turn. 

I'm using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint® in French Linen.  It is one of my favorite colors and I use it all over my house, including my kitchen cabinets.

I began by removing the drawers and the hardware and got to work.

I began with one light coat of chalk paint® then a second. I slightly distressed using a fine grit sandpaper. 

I sealed the piece with Artisan Enhancements Clear Topcoat.

At the same time I also painted the tall dresser in this set.

Check out these gorgeous, perfect knobs. I got them from 
D Lawless Hardware and they are just perfect for this furniture!

I could not be happier with the way this furniture turned out.  After all these years of living with unpainted and sad looking furniture, this room is now a gorgeous bright and neutral place that just makes me happy!

Here is the final reveal!

    I love how your bedroom pieces turned out, Susan!

    I'm trying to decide what to do with a dresser and chest in my bedroom right now. It's all oak, so my husband is hesitant to let me paint them, but they just don't look right in the room with the remodel we are doing, but I think I can talk him into letting me paint them!

      Paint it, paint it, paint it... I love the old oak but in most cases the old stuff is damaged and needs paint. :)
