French Harvest Mudroom Bench Makeover

Art is beauty
by Art is beauty
I found this BENCH/Media stand at my local goodwill. It was pretty gross looking but with the wheels on it and the open bottom shelf I thought it would make a cool mudroom bench.
Using some paint and a stencil I was able to transform it. Come see it now!

You can see here what I started with.


It was an old outdated pine ....SOMETHING???


It had wheels but it was a bench and I have no idea if it was suppose to be a moving


media stand (aka TV STAND) or


a bench...I decided...It was gonna be a BENCH :)
I started with some Americana Decor


Chalky finish paint in Cameo.


I loved the deep orange red color it had.


It warmed this piece right up.


But it still needed more.


I decided to pull out my also AMERICANA stencil in French Script


and Lace Paint.


I stenciled the script on leaving space in the middle.


I then used the Lace colored paint to give a shabby Grain Sack stripe right down the middle.


When It was all done I coated the whole thing in


Americana Cream Wax to seal it.
It went from blah...to BAM!!!


I just love what a little bit of paint can do!
