I’ve been noticing that Pottery Barn has been really pushing darker wood finishes on their site and I’m seeing designers I love like Amber Interiors use a lot of darker woods lately, I think we’ll be seeing a lot more of dark wood tones this year

You are not only very talented, you are a wonderful teacher!!! I appreciate your attention to detail as you explain things. I am excited to try this on an old dresser that was my Dad's when he was a boy. It is currently painted brown. I love the look. First I have to get my garage cleaned out so I have a place to work on it. LOL

I have this VERY dresser! I bought it from a landlady in the 1970s, so I guess it was a 1960s or 50s dresser and I think it's maple. It was ORANGE, which even in the 70s was NOT a cool finish, so I sanded it down and dark-stained it with no clear coat at all. It has been lovingly used to this very day--it is now silky smooth on top from dusting and loving touches for 50 years, moved at least 5 times and in excellent condition with very few mars and now being used in our closet. I have thought of taking it to the bare wood look, but watching your video today, I decided I still love this one for how I changed it 50 years ago. In fact, how you did this dark-colored faux wood treatment makes yours look very similar to mine in color--which I mean as a compliment, if you can't tell. Thanks for making this video--and nice job!

I hope this is an interesting correction: it's not Jimmy rig, it's Jerry rig. The term came about during WWII, when the name 'Jerry' indicated a German soldier. Anything put together with dubious result was considered to be 'Jerry rigged'. Love your work & ingenuity.

I think I've watched almost all of your videos, and they are so informative and helpful, especially in color choices. I've tried your pottery barn gray on several pieces of my own furniture that I upgraded from cheap black veneer to tables and TV stand that look fabulous. My husband LOVES them. I'm wondering if you have any plans to test out the MCM walnut colors that are so popular right now. I'd love to make over some items with a mid-century modern vibe, but could use help on the color choices, and method to make them look like walnut instead of oak. Thanks for all your videos! 🙂

Can I add the red and brown paint to a white chalk paint that I already have? I want to do this to my bathroom vanity. What paint can I use beside chalk paint. So Do I use the behr ruggard tan in the cabinet and trim paint? I use that color for the lighter color you show in the tutorial the pottery barn look. Will the valspar antiquing glaze give that darker tone?

You can totally add the red and brown to your chalk paint, try a small amount first to get the color you like 👍
@blacksheephouse2 жыл бұрын
You can use any paint you like, I would prime a vanity first just because they get so much use and water. I generally use rugged tan in the satin or semi gloss enamel and then finish the piece after it’s dry with a matte water based polyurethane to give a more matte finish bc I prefer matte finishes

Which in your opinion is your very favourite choice of paint which turns out a perfect job ?
@blacksheephouse2 жыл бұрын
Hi! Thanks for watching so many of my videos!! 😀 My absolute favorite paint right now is Valspar Furniture and cabinet enamel. It takes longer to cure but once it does it is SO SO durable and it doesn’t need a topcoat or primer first, although primer is cheaper than any paint so it would be a savings to use primer generally if you paint many pieces ❤️ My second favorite is my one step paint recipe you can find here kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3KzlWZ8aK9qrsk My third favorite is Fusion mineral paint. These are my recommendations as of 2022 ❤️

Coffee grounds work- I bought a desk from a bar (didn’t know it was a bar until I drove 40 minutes out in the country). It smelled like old fried food and wet ash trays. 🤢 I turned it upside down, bought cheap coffee (ground) and spread it on every surface. Took the drawers out and put coffee grounds in them too. Wrapped the whole thing in a plastic drop cloth and left it for a few days. Flip right side up and repeat if necessary.
