[@janecatcher1118]

Amazingly beautiful! You are an artist! I love this video so professional and inspirational. I have. A few pieces I want to refinish and you have given me lots to work ! Results will not be nearly as impressive as yours though! Thanks for the tips on Fusion paint. They were very wise to front you their materials!

[@DIYDEANNA]

Hi Jane, thanks for watching and taking the time to leave this thoughtful message. I really appreciate your feedback and so happy you are inspired!

[@erikas2216]

I love the colours. I love Fusion paints. I’ve used those colours. My favourite is Seaside.

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thanks for watching! I love all the blues too and this paint!

[@loriritchie3096]

Beautiful! I like the hardware how it is 💗

[@DIYDEANNA]

Lori Ritchie thanks so much for watching and for your feedback! I think I will leave the hardware as is.

[@tonirae72]

I heard you on the Kacha Podcast so I wanted to check out your channel. This piece is beautiful! I will be binge watching your videos🙂

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thanks for listening to me on the Kacha Podcast and for checking out my channel, I appreciate your support!

[@sheylaboucher3829]

Amazing creation! Could you have done it with another kind of paint?

[@DIYDEANNA]

Yes, absolutely. This paint is an acrylic base but you could probably get a similar look with any furniture paint.

[@megangarcia6991]

So they have a gold leaf sealer (I like the one from Hobby Lobby that’s Beacon brand “metal leaf sealer”) that I use to keep the gold leafing bright and shiny while still sealing it… then I seal the rest of the furniture with its own sealer (usually polycrylic). 👍🏻

[@susanc1179]

Did you let the 2nd coat dry before you started tapping in colors? Thanks

[@traceybennett8053]

BEAUTIFUL!!! one question... could you use chalk paint and Matte wax for this project?

[@DIYDEANNA]

Yes, absolutely!

[@LaughingInTiny]

Just FYI, there are Eco alternatives to TSP now that work just as well.

[@RayneArt]

This is gorgeous! How long do you wait between layers?

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thank you! Fusion recommends 2 hours between coats I left mine a little longer but only because I didn't have time to do it all in one day. Thanks for watching!

[@jafallica]

Or use Krud Kutter (available at Lowe’s) or Totally Awesome all purpose cleaner at the Dollar Tree (cleans awesome).

[@DIYDEANNA]

Bahama Mama I’ve heard of these but never used them, I’ll have to give it a try! Thanks for the suggestion.

[@jafallica]

DIY DEANNA they are really great cleaners fur prepping furniture. Totally Awesome is great for so many cleaning projects but does fantastic on furniture and is only $1.00!

[@KMF3]

I wish you were still doing videos

[@DIYDEANNA]

Your wish may come true soon 😃

[@MahadiaLeBon]

Amazing work

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thanks so much for your kind words!! I’m Aquarius “water carrier” ♒️

[@orientalservices273]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@sgnorris]

I think the handles would look great if you kind of blended them in blue with the paint.I wish you had slow down on some of your brushstrokes so that I could follow you

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thanks for watching and your comments. In settings there is a playback speed option, maybe you can slow down the video to see the strokes better? I’ll keep this in mind for future videos.

[@iancarlton232]

Keep handles.
