rustic bureau makeover


Happy Mothers Day weekend!!  I just wanted to share a fun little makeover I finished today!

I am loving the look of weathered wood lately, and this little bureau was the perfect piece to try it on a larger scale!

I apologize for the lack of a good before picture - I know I took one, but have a feeling little Vinnie deleted it😁

You can see it there peeking out behind the desk - it was painted black and primed everywhere but drawers - I first sanded it down to bare bones, and let Vinnie clean it up for me.

I then started weathering it using the technique I shared last week... First stain, then a dry brush of cream colored acrylic paint.

Notice the cute little legs I added - I just spray painted them with the same color I sprayed the knobs I used.


Aftere the paint was set, I nailed on a piece of palette wood painted to match as a backboard and sanded down the whole piece.


Attached the dry knobs and there she is!


Have a great weekend!
Xoxo
