Over the years, I have painted A LOT of furniture!
I mean a lot.

I haven’t tried out all of my painting ideas/techniques just yet, but here are my favorite DIY furniture painting projects that I’m convinced anyone can achieve because if I can do it, anyone damn well can.

You just need an idea, Velvet Finishes paint, and in some cases, a good drink in hand! (hey, I’m just being honest guys)

DIY Painting Leather


Have any old, ugly leather or pleather furniture you’re thinking about dumping? Well good news! You don’t have to get rid of it – you can paint it with Velvet Finishes!
DIY File Cabinet Makeover


At the design studio, I need file cabinets near my desk.  If not, I file in the floor. It’s not a good look. But neither are file cabinets. They are. So. Ugly.
So I decided to make my file cabinets pretty with this easy diy file cabinet makeover! Oh, and of course Velvet Finishes.
Update your Furniture with Overlay’s Panels


I first discovered O’verlays several years ago.  I’ve been hooked ever since.
O’verlays are lightweight, glueable panels that can completely change the way a piece of furniture looks.
They work on wood, metal, mirror, glass – you name it!
They are revolutionary!
DIY Paint your Refrigerator


Are refrigerators considered furniture? Probably not, but when they are painted with Velvet Finishes they resemble a great furniture piece!
Don’t let your refrigerator be boring, add some colour to it! It’s practically begging…
Furniture you can Write On!


Want a dresser you can write on? It is possible!
This poor dresser had seen better days. Scuffs, marks and a broken mirror on the top drawer.  Sad and unloved. Isn’t she a beaut now?
DIY Vanity


Can Velvet Finishes paint over laminate? You bet your buns!
See how we gave this piece a new life in our tutorial.

DIY Flip a Piano into a Bar


How many of you have a piano that sits lonely in the corner? I did too.
Until I flipped my piano into a bar! Needless to say, we use her a lot more now. icon
