    how do you achieve the speckled faux finish on this bedroom side chest...looks like it was glazed, maybe, and flicked with color...LOVE the look

    Do you paint all the way inside where the drawers are or just around the inside perimeter where you slide them in and out and do you paint the back?

    Yes, most definitely but you gave NO instructions as to the physicked step by step process! That and materials used. Please do so your work is fabulous and I’m anxious to attempt myself.Thank you , Barbara from Texas❤️
