Furniture Flip using my 1 step paint recipe - makeover on a budget - hardware hack - diy Dalia Color

I use my one step paint recipe on this furniture flip, I show how to avoid brush and roller marks and streaks, saving money on the paint allows me to splurge on hardware and accessories so I can make more $$ per flip

Products used
Ovation Paint (custom color I mixed using oops paint leftovers) I do go a bit darker when I do the recipe bc the white primer will lighten it a bit
Primer Zinser 123 water based
Zinsser 02004 Bulls Eye 1-2-3 All Surface Primer, Quart, White www.amazon.com/dp/B000H5VKBQ/...
Clear Coat - Varathane water based polyurethane
If I get a satin clear coat then I go with a flat paint and I like that combo, or if I get a matte clear coat than I use a satin paint finish. Basically go for one satin and one flat/matte to get the matte finish look.
I couldn’t find a good price for matte polyurethane in quart size on Amazon so I linked satin, I use satin a lot too I just go with a flat paint when I use satin clear coat in the recipe and get the same finish vice versa. The calcium carbonate gives a more flat finish to the whole thing as well so even with satin poly you’ll get a perfect matte finish this way.

I should add that many furniture artists I admire are great with pure chalk paint, I am not though 😂 so I stick with my 1 step paint recipe, or hardware store type paints (acrylic based) and enamel paints. This recipe does have chalk in it, but such a small amount that I don’t encounter the struggles I did early in my career with full on chalk paints. ✌️ ❤️

[@lynvoyager5976]

By adding calcium carbonate to your paint mixture you turned it into chalk paint. Calcium carbonate is chalk. I will try the recipe though since it means not adding extra layers to the piece. Nicely done makeover.

[@dorothylehman4164]

Hello I'm a seventy-two-year-old great-grandmother I love watching what you do I like the way you cut the bottom scalloped off and made it look more modern that was a real slick little trick you did there I really like that I used to do furniture and I'd never never thought about doing something like that anyway you're doing a good job keep up the good work I love watching you

[@helenthebaker]

I never would have thought to remove the door, but I love how this turned out! I really struggle with envisioning a new look for pieces.

[@aiviliv]

Me too!! I don't get to make up my mind!

[@miss_sunshine25]

Start with something you like but won't stress about if it's messed up...and use mostly (if you can) what you have on hand, because starting is the hardest part. Try different painting and finishing techniques on different areas to find out which one you like best. Then, do it. If you don't like it try something else over the top. The more you do the more creative you will become. The action alone gets the creative juices flowing. Good luck!

[@LoriM222]

​@@miss_sunshine25That's really good advice!!

[@sandragraham4825]

Omg, you just rocked my world with your “all in one” paint hack. I’m not lazy, but I don’t want to have to do three steps to get a beautifully painted and finished piece…..time is of the essence 😊. I also create my own chalk paint with calcium carbonate so this is a real game changer for me.

[@andreamccomas5848]

I am so blessed to see this video. It is literally an answer to prayer. It popped up on KZbin this morning after praying for direction on what furniture to take with me when I downsize to a smaller house after being widowed a year ago. I have the exact dresser and never dreamed of painting it and don't like the curve on the bottom. Love how you cut that part off! Thanks for the simplicity.

[@lisaking7168]

I rarely comment but I have to say, I am SO IMPRESSED with your videos! I follow a few bloggers and you, by far, have the best tutorials and techniques! Love ! Love! Love! Jeep up the fabulous work! Also the before and after are stunning! Thank you! 💜💜💜 Happy Valentines 💝 Day!

[@busyme4]

Once again, amazing transformation! one has to be a visionary when flipping furniture, and you are definitely a master at envisioning these oldies, they were really well made furniture and deserve to shine again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@elsaarmendariz7765]

I’m so obsessed with your videos, im planning on flipping my daughters childhood bedroom and your videos are really helping me to not be afraid and go for it…thanks, you’re so good at explaining and really appreciate sharing your knowledge ❤️

[@victoriacarpenter2657]

Omg your little girl is adorable when she stepped back to look at the new hardware with you ...

[@lynnel.1083]

Oh my goodness! I have a very similar dresser in storage. Love the transformation! I will keep this in mind when i redo it. Thank you! 🥰

[@renacarrier1091]

Thank you for taking the time to share all of this valuable information! I appreciate you!!! It's wonderful that you are so willing to help us all learn through your journey. Thank you!!!

[@aubreywilcox9882]

Absolutely love this transformation! You gave it a whole new life! 100% agree on the hardware! You nailed it. It’s so beautiful 😍

[@lizhoward9754]

Boy that turned out so modern and sooo beautiful! Love watching your precious dog and daughter pop into the videos. I definitely see a future creative DIYer in your daughter,

[@michaelmeans9187]

I greatly appreciate all the time and effort you put into making these videos. As always, looks amazing! Keep up the good work.

[@catcar8212]

Hi Shannon, the color you chose is beautiful and the reshaped bottom trim is perfect. Styling with baskets and matching hardware really updates the look. And who doesn't love a little helping hand with hardware decisions! Great work.🌷🌷

[@emilykrahn3185]

Love the color and the sheen it looks so smooth and velvety and the handles are just beautiful with it, I love the contrast of the wood and the paint and the baskets it all looks great

[@wendyhall24]

Love this! The color is so pretty and the wood handles compliment it so nicely.

[@pamelarubelmann5692]

Love the color and the natural wood drawer pulls..Thanks for sharing your painting technique.

[@coniccinoc]

The transformation is so impressive. You turn something you might be a little embarrassed over into a conversation piece worth bragging about. Just beautiful, thank you for publishing.

[@rebelfoodnurse7743]

Shannon, I just love you ! Your tips and teaching are the BOMB! Ty for pouring into us via video!!

[@mvang5028]

I love your one step paint job. Your method is right up my alley. Can’t wait to try it.

[@GodsChosenOne1986]

I love the richness of this paint color. Such a beautiful piece; you make it look so simple 💗💗

[@mstb9217]

Came out beautiful! Great idea for the drawer handles and baskets!

[@ellenfenton714]

I had this exact dresser until just recently. I believe it was sold exclusively at Sears. It was part of a bedroom set and had a mirrored hutch on top. I bought mine in the mid to late 1970's. Very impressed with the transformation.

[@sarahpugh749]

Greetings from the UK! I could watch your videos all day, thank you for being so genuine and sharing your skill and expertise, very educational and much appreciated!

[@deneenbell4278]

You did a great job!😮 Practice definitely makes perfect. A true gift🙏🏼

[@shirleyjohnson3397]

This piece came out gorgeous. And thank you for your tips.

[@charlotterogers1182]

I just started watching your videos, and I'm definitely going to benefit from your knowledge when I paint my kitchen cabinets. God bless ya'll.

[@rosiefroese5461]

Thanks for the tips Shannon. Love the way it turned out!

[@nancysolomon204]

Thank you SO MUCH for posting the exact recipe.

[@christinemowbray6116]

Another beautiful job and explained so well ! Thank you 😊

[@katied8324]

I used your one, one, one method and it worked wonderfully on a desk! It made it so much easier and looks beautiful! Thank you for your videos!

[@Nanassugars]

So beautiful!! I cannot wait to find a piece just like this one to flip this way!! Love it!! 👏🏼❤️

[@staceyremmele561]

Thank you thank you thank you Shannon, I've been waiting for this video using your all in one paint YAY!!! Your piece turned out great as usual 💛.... Now I'm definitely going to try it.. Thank you again 😘💚

[@teresaneal6521]

Your little girl is so precious! Love this diy!

[@MrsJax304]

I really like the colors. It's very complimentary.

[@shawndelaney9311]

Beautiful transformation! ❤️

[@lollygee172]

Thanks Shannon for taking the time to create this content. Because I can’t afford new, I’m on a mission to paint all my old stuff. Started this weekend using your paint recipe on a fiddly carved coffee table. It did lighten up my base color but fortunately i had also bought some Waverly chalk paint (Walmart) in various shades. One of them was the perfect color to deepen the mix to the shade of the original color. I tell you this because the most important thing I’ve learned from you is to be brave and just get started. 🤓. I can’t wait to move on to some of my uncarved pieces to use the roller technique but your paint formula is quite self leveling. Thanks again!!!

[@blacksheephouse]

Love that 😃

[@bethbartlett5692]

@@blacksheephouse Copy of my comment, hope it inspires fun creative works! Copy: You did very well and the Cane piece adds a current design/decor value that really makes the piece fresh and current. Note: I recently saw a hint that metalics and metals are a potential Now-element. The Newest Home Design trend is influenced by "Modern-Victorian" (painful ehh b/c that requires a really gifted Professional to pull it off with a pleasing outcome, (Victorian is so heavy and cluttered). I share this so you may be looking for pieces with those curves found in Victorian. *Here's the 🔑 Tips to a Modern-Victorian:* Think in terms of outlines and clean space = the Frame w/o all the little details. Current Color Palette with (Gemtone accent Pieces). Definitely Google "Modern-Victorian" and go to Images. It is a matter of applying Minimalism to Victorian to get the success and "Minimal Victorian" is just a real Oxymoron. (Why can't they get some Harmony in Mind, in the Designer World?) However, there is Harmony in every Subject If one goes to it with "Moderation in Mind", and that's exactly where the Success will be realized. Rather than the Victorian busy prints for upholstery, smooth continuous colors that are textured and Gemtone for focal points (Ruby, Saphire, Emerald, and White Diamond). As well, a Victorian frame sofa with the neutrals like greige, sage, pearl, a Ruby Throw and Ruby Pillow with 1 Ruby Tassel. Tri shades of White, Milk, and Cream. High Gloss Pure White Trim, "Lighting is Most Important" Hope you enjoy these tips and Best Successes. Beth Tennessee, USA

Lovely. I appreciate your honesty about chalk paint

[@LullaUncomfortabletruth]

So glad to see someone that doesn't just chalk paint constantly!!! I think that some pieces are great chalk painted, but don't prefer it myself, at all. Thank you.

Absolutely gorgeous!

Thanks for sharing your recipe. Though I do like old hardware, I think what you chose works well with the new squared- off bottom (that was clever and brave)! Looks great!

[@relevant.c5411]

[@stephanieprice5780]

Phenomenal flip!!❤️

[@dudoe2000]

This turned out very nice. It's been a long day and watching your video was very relaxing. I picked up a dresser today and looking for ideas. I love this.

[@sherrya6902]

It came out beautiful!

[@CedarPineDesigns]

Very beautiful results. Replacing the pulls really did make the piece shine.

[@KarmaZeusBoi]

This is genius. You are brilliant!

[@user-oz8vx5bl8p]

OMG, I love this!!! This is one of my favorite flips you have done. I am with you on the chalk paint. I didn't really have the same issues, but I found, even with it being very protected, I had to go do touch ups for clients. No thanks! LOL I am so going to replicate this look. So simply elegant.

[@blacksheephouse]

Yes, I had that issue a few times too when I was doing chalk/wax 😭 let me know if you try this recipe and how you think it compares to the enamel paint you use! I have been using valspar furniture and cabinet enamel and liking it for heavy duty stuff and def feel like enamel is stronger but also too shiny/plastic looking sometimes for certain things I really want super matte ya know. Seriously though, let me know how the recipe performs for you 👏

[@conniepleasantnails]

Beautiful, you’re inspiring me to start painting again 💕

[@jamiedays2008]

Thank you for the wonderful tips!

Very pretty, I like how that came out. I would have never thought you could save that dresser as it was pretty rough. Beautifully done!

[@xandraherrera7524]

I'm so happy to have found your channel, you are amazing!! I have many tables and other things to restore and I hope that with your guidance I can learn and do a great job... And maybe some money down the road! Thank you for posting all this.

[@debbymodd4579]

I am so glad you said perfection isn't a key component! I agree 100%. One reason I haven't done resale is because I hate perfection. Wish me luck on my new endeavor and thanks for all your wonderful tips❤
