Ballerina Pink Armoire, before and after

Hi guys,

Hope you had a fun summer!
Mine was very busy with several paint projects.  One of my customer's was looking for extra storage for her little girl's bedroom.  Well when I saw this beauty I knew it would be lots of work but it would be worth it...  There was missing a drawer so I asked my cabinet maker to make one.  Created a plaid faux finish on the upper part of the cabinet front and side.  I have many more projects on the way so that's all for now... Have a great one!!!!!!!
Love Suzanne!

Coffee table with vintage blue attitude!

Hello Everyone,

Just finished painting a cute end table for my customer's living room, see below.  She wanted it painted fresh and in a fun color.

I've selected some photos of rooms from BHG as inspiration for the color that I would paint the table.

Steps I followed:

• Wash and sand
• 1st coat = 1 cup of light grey latex paint + (2 tablespoons Paris Plaster + 2 tablespoons of water mix together, then add to the grey paint ), mix very well.  
• 2nd coat, same procedure as above but with a different color, in this case a darker teal blue
• Top finish with dry brush stroke in a light teal blue.
• Let dry overnight.
• Distress by sanding lightly....try to get all coats to peak trough in different spots from top to buttom.

Hope this will inspire you to try a paint project of your own!  Don't hesitate if you have questions it will be a pleasure to assist you.Thanks for stopping by and have a great one! Suzanne
