Karla of Hart & Soul Designs upcycled this sweet buffet in Lamp Black Milk Paint and High Performance Topcoat in Flat, with some beautiful knobs! "I loved how smooth it brushed on. This piece will be in my booth tomorrow at University Pickers!" Thanks for sharing this pretty piece, Karla!
"Let me just say....I have NEVER used a paint that went on as smooth as this one! It actually reminds me of an oil paint, but without the sticky mess. I LOVED how it went on so smooth that you can still see the wood grain.
I could have ended with one coat [General Finishes Lamp Black Milk Paint], but I decided to go ahead and give it two. I also detailed it with some silver acrylic paint for the tattered Hollywood glam I was going for."
