Chalk Painting 101 Video! Painting Two Vintage Night Stands!
I had two night stands from a yard sale that need some revamping. I painted them and refinished the tops. Made a lil' video for those of you who are new to chalk painting. I hope you enjoy!
I cleaned up the hardware with 50/50 mix of water and vinegar and a small splash of blue original Dawn dish soap, I scrub them with a semi abrasive pad.

I also included below the video on how to refinish the tops in wood.
Aren't these just stunning. I am thrilled with the makeover.

I just love this finish and use it quite often on many of my pieces.
I love the way the shimmer makes the wood glisten in the light. You can find these products and more information on my site linked below. If you love this post please share it or pin it! If you have any questions I am happy to help so please leave a comment.
