The painting details 🎨

As usual, my first step was to prep the piece. This is a large buffet table, therefore the last thing I wanted was to apply extra coats of paint to cover any bleeds because I skipped prep time. To learn my prep routine check THIS VIDEO. Trust me, my prep method is truly fail-proof. I use it on all of my projects and it has never let me down.

Once done with prep time, I started by painting this piece in 2 coats of Midnight Sky from Dixie Belle Paint Company. Then, I applied a layer of Satin Clear Coat. When the clear coat had dried, I used Steel Magnolia very lightly, to glaze over the entire piece. I went lighter in some areas to create a shaded effect 🖤.

 

The last step was to highlight all the details with Silver gilding wax.

 

And she is not only beautiful on the outside, take a peek inside!!

The inside is PINK!

 

Lately, I’ve been obsessed with hot pink. I want to paint everything hot pink. Fireplaces, walls, and my refrigerator to name a few. And yeah, you read that right, you can paint your refrigerator. I shared on a previous blog how to paint your refrigerator, but if you are more of a visual learner, I recently posted on my YouTube Channel, THIS VIDEO  with the step by step instructions.

But despite my desire of going wild with hot pink I wanted to stay classy for this buffet table makeover, However, I added the perfect amount of pink to stay classy while still indulging my current color craze.

 

I painted the drawers with Plum Crazy and cover the fronts with decor foils from Artistic painting studio.
