About This Post
Big congrats to Diane of The Paint Factory! Her vanity was featured on Stylish Patina as the before and after project of the week! The veneer on this piece was badly damaged so Diane decided to "keep the good areas and work with the rest". For the paint, she went with a mix of blue, green and gray chalk paint. She used General Finishes Java Gel Stain on the rest. She also added an extra element by glazing this piece with GF's Van Dyke Brown Glaze Effects. Using glaze over paint is a great way to create a rich dimensional look for your piece. Also visit Diane's great blog, http://thepaintfactorypdx.com/. And if you're interested in learning more about glazing check out GF's video "How to Apply Glaze Effects Over General Finishes Milk Paint & Make Repairs", https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iqo0wN3B0-E
