You Need To Learn How To Create Unique Coral Painted Furniture
I love all things bright and I don't think it is really a secret. What I really wanted to do was make this little secretary desk a statement piece. I have been itching to paint either a bright pink or coral piece. This girl needed help! Let me show you how to create amazing coral painted furniture
Nothing Special.
This piece was pretty shiny and dirty! I cleaned it really well with my Dixie Belle White Lightning then rinsed it with clean water. Once the secretary desk was dry, I scuff sanded it. As a result my furniture has a great surface to start with. Remember your final result is only as good as your prep.
For this special coral color, I mixed 2 parts of Cotton (bright white), 1 part of Daisy (lemon yellow), 1 part of Peony (bright magenta) and 1/2 part of Florida Orange (bright orange). (In case you use a different paint brand, these are the shades you need).
Afterwards, I painted the entire piece in two coats of this custom coral color. Later on I added a little more Peony to create more of a salmon color. I also add some of the peony at the bottom and blended the entire piece.
I have a video for you :)
After I blended and painted this secretary desk, I added a stencil. I used a stencil that looks like lace! Using Redesign With Prima's Chalk Paste in Hubbard Squash I spread it across the stencil with a plastic spatula.
I would love to hear what you think about the final product! Also don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel as well :) Also you can click the links above to purchase your supplies ❤️
