milk paint makeover

2.22.2013

Several months ago, I talked about starting on a big boy bedroom for my 3 year old.  It's not done quite yet, but we're getting there.  A few things are finished in the room, but we still have a little more to do before the reveal.  I decided to bring home a dresser that we had hanging out at the shoppe to use in Dominick's room.  When we originally found this piece it was covered in a couple of layers of blue latex paint.  {I hunted for a before photo, but couldn't find one.}

I contemplated stripping it down to the old pine finish {which I may do in the future}, but for now I gave it a facelift by painting it with Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint in Typewriter and I love the way it turned out.




Don't mind the missing knob on the bottom right (as I call attention to it).  I've got to get another one the next time I'm at Hobby Lobby.

Also, just a little reminder, we are doing mini Milk Paint demos at the shoppe tomorrow.  Stop in anytime from 11-2 and we'll show you our tips and tricks for working with Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint.

xo,
Rachel

Hi Rachel, I love the color of this little make over here....I have a big Armoire in my Playroom that I have been meaning to paint. Sounds like you are very familiar with the Miss Mustard seed Paints. Would it be possible for me to email you a picture of my Armoire and you can tell me if I can just paint over the existing stain to get this look?? Christine from http://littlebrags.blogspot.com
