Chippy Paint Nightstands

Our bedroom has long been in need of a little make-over. A couple years ago, we upgraded to a king bed and after a lot of looking we finally found the perfect headboard and footboard for it! We had to do a little building, sanding and staining, but we eventually ended up with a nice bed that we love!
But the only problem was that we never could find nightstands to go with it! Our bed is tall and large and we needed large nightstands to work with it and be proportional. I have literally spent two years searching for nightstands for our room with no luck! Until the other day I found the perfect ones!

So today I am really thrilled and excited to share our Distressed Chippy Paint Nightstands with you!!
Thankfully with a little elbow grease and patience these fixed up really nicely! We sanded, primed and then painted with brown paint.
After the paint was dry, we put Vaseline along the edges and then painted with our final aqua colored paint.
We finished these off with a coat of Polycrylic.
See my blog for all the paint colors I used and for more details on how to recreate this look yourself!
