Looks awesome. I'm happy to see floral vintage upholstery getting painted this way bc I have a huge floral vintage chair that's like super comfy but of course it's outdated. I wanna paint it charcoal but wasn't sure how the texture would end up. Your couches look nice n smooth. I'll make sure to sand between layers

I like that you're down to earth and very budget friendly. We can save so many people oodles of money by teaching them to upcycle. Im a huge supporter of it.... I painted a old sectional hide abed once. With extre interior paint and some over priced liquid from Micheals which is made for paints to go on fabric. I was disappointed. It was a good learning lesson anyways. But I have a microfiber couch to tackle as I really don't enjoy the shade of brown. My life needs more blue in it 😜.... I am however wayyy to chicken to post videos... though maybe I'll muster the confidence. Good job and good finds. 🙏

Hello😊 your sofa turned out absolutely gorgeous! I wonder if you can help me, I also painted a sofa, with the same technique, it looks really nice but if you sit on it it's super dusty and you have paint on your body. I don't want to sand the last coat because the sanding removes the brightness of the color, and I don't want to wax it because I like the way the fabric feels right now. Do you have any ideas or tricks on how I can make that sofa usable after painting it?

I have experienced some chipping I feel would not have happened if I didn’t use the sealant or if I would have used Annie Sloan’s chalk pain instead of Rustoleum. So if you’re going to use chalk paint instead of fabric paint. I recommend Annie Sloan’s instead. 😊

Ok, this tutorial is for any of those beginners and know that they don't have to pay the high price times to do something on a very tight budget. So good for you. I've never heard about adding fabric softener. But ok. May try. I've done it with several type of brands, from the Walmart bargains paints, to the Home Depot paints, can't remember the brands, and I've upgraded to DIY which I love, and the brushes. But I am older and have an older budget. LOL.. I'm sharing with my niece who just got her place.

Anna Ibarra I never said this video was for experts lol! Or beginners for that matter. I just showed the method I used to paint my couch and what worked for me! Also, yes! It’s VERY budget friendly and also the point of my video and DIY’s! In my opinion, DIY’s are for people who like to do crafts, art, creative things themselves, and also like to save money. I don’t think it matters very much what brand anyone uses or how much money they want to spend on their items, if that’s what they want to do! 🤷🏽‍♀️ No one has to follow the method I used and I encourage anyone to try their own method or others! This is just what worked for me and I enjoyed doing it! Glad you have methods, paints, and brushes that work for you! And thanks for sharing with your niece! 😊

@@ThediyGrind Oh yes Of course, my opinion that you don't need the high price of materials, as many will add that having good quality brushes, etc, is worth buying. I never did, even though I could afford it, but I felt why should I. I have many friends have been stirred away from doing it period. This was my reason for saying that I feel it is a more friendly version for beginners and not scaring them away. I was not being a troll, I don't do that at all. Never done it and never well.

The diy Grind Thank you so much for your reply. I was thinking that might be the case but I just wanted to make sure before I got started. I can’t wait to begin. I live for this kind of thing so I really appreciate your ability to do this type of project. Your daughter is such a doll too!

White will go perfectly over brown, or suggest getting a paint that has primer in it as well though or chalk paint! Thanks for the comment! 😊

Thanks for posting! I was just thinking if it was possible to chalk pain a couch so I googled it and your video came up. I loved it. Your daughter is adorable. I saw that you suggest to wax for the top coat, would it stain the clothes? Thanks again!
@ThediyGrind
@ThediyGrind 4 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much! 😊 the wax definitely won’t come off onto clothes, I personally didn’t use a wax but I have watched videos where they used it on chairs and couches and it didn’t! Google Annie Sloan she has a few tutorials out and she is the originator of chalk paint if I’m not mistaken.

Hello I loved the video. Can you use a paint roller ? I was thinking if I wet it then did the paint it might would work. Lol I don’t know help 😂

Hey that came out amazing. I want to redo an old settè for my mom for Mother’s Day. You said at one point you were going to seal it after but you didn’t show that part in the video. What do you use to seal it? Love your videos thanks for taking the time to film while you do all that. Girl I barely have the patience to finish a project more less film and edit the process. Much love from New Orleans ❤️⚜️

Abram Ojada thanks so much!! I appreciate your positive feedback! I used a paint sealer and just painted on like I did the paint but it did crack a little on the non-textured couch so I suggest using a wax to seal instead. Hope that helps!
