Creating my dream, armoire with chalk paint

[@magdalenamorris9350]

Lovely!

[@Addiezmom]

I love how naturally faded it ended up looking. Your work is beautiful!

[@renateschlapa9743]

Deine Arbeit ist toll👍👏 Dieser Schrank ist genau mein Geschmack👍 Liebe Grüße

[@Kathy-zx5bu]

Is there anything lovlier than listening to happy children playing outdoors? Your cabinet is beautiful. I love it! 💕

[@katharinatrub1338]

I agree, only it depends a bit the 'real' loudness and frequency ; ))

[@NatelleB]

Looks like something you would excavate on a Greek island. Looks like a very fresh, happy distressed wardrobe. Wasn’t my favorite at first, but love it now.

[@doreencaulier1758]

Great work!🙌❤👍👏

[@johnmeyerhofer6935]

Jonathan your work always make me smile with delight as your art is revealed.TY for sharing

[@ifigeniapoulopoulou1879]

Gorgeous!!!! 👋👋👋♥️♥️♥️

[@helenthodos8340]

Thanks Jonathon, you are always such an inspiration!

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

Thank you very very much and thank you for joining this evening

[@bethbartlett5692]

Exactly !

[@KathyB-m5d]

Everything about this piece is my type of painted furniture I especially like. The process of creating a chippy, worn look is fascinating and easily fools the eye that it is an original authentic finish. So convincing and beautifully done. I love everything I've seen so far and hope there is lot's ahead to explore on your channel. Thank you for presenting your art for us to enjoy!

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

@@KathyB-m5d thank you so much for your lovely message and presuming you’re new to my channel so a big warm welcome from me and I hope you enjoy some of the other videos I’ve done and new ones to come 😊❤️🙏

[@mmoore92706]

OMG, that pattern needed covering up! Nice transformation.

[@ondinadixon1875]

Hi ya Jonathon. What a Beauty! It’s just ABSOLUTELY! BRILLIANT! ❤❤ IT Just ❤all those colours 👏

[@franceshaypenny8481]

Very nice piece. You're right, that inside color is really a lovely contrast to the warmer outer color.

[@ReneeDoan]

Love how it turned out!

[@observer4497]

I am in absolute aww of your talent Sir.. I literally just purchased a Buffet that I spotted last year while shopping for a new sofa set but the price was way above what I wanted to pay, but as luck would have it I heard a radio announcement that the furniture store was closing that location and inventory was 60% off! I went there the next morning and it was still there..😍🙌 I recognized the details and It looks like it is from the same company the built your cabinet.. I cannot believe that you actually replicated the same finish that is on my new buffet, that looks like it was brought up from a shipwreck… I’m in love with it. I thoroughly enjoyed watching all of the amazing work that you put into bringing your piece back to its original finish. It is Stunning 😍 .

[@lindabyrne3353]

Great texture and especially loving the Svenska blue inside 😍

[@leejacobs3620]

Epic tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@Angel-rv1mt]

Another hour will-spent. I learned so much. I was struck by how durable the paint was once you began distressing. Also, I see what you mean about not using dark wax rather letting the distressing achieve that effect in a more cohesive look to the aging process. Simply beautiful.

[@francesnustedt9036]

There's something so warm and cosy about those old freestanding kitchen cupboards. I think that has to be my next project! Thanks for such a brilliant tutorial Jonathon.

[@lesliegooch7565]

Really beautiful results!

[@sherylgraves4984]

Love this tutorial Jonathon. As always you’ve created a masterpiece!!💜

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

Thank you so much Shirley and thank you for always being present on my premiers. Much appreciated.

[@mistygeller3193]

Oh my goodness that’s beautiful!! Very good demonstration and the finished result is great!!!

[@trinawilliams1395]

Jonathan....i missed most of the premier but am so grateful that you make your videos available for replay. What an awesome finished product. I am always amazed at how you continue to stretch the boundaries of what you can do with paint. You have no fear. You OWN the paint and make it your b---h!!! LOL Sorry but its so true. I have an armoire thats just begging for this treatment and now you've graciously shared the techniques to make my piece gorgeous. You are a very selfless artist and I thank you for you willingness to share your talents with so many. 😊❤🙏

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

😆😆😆 oh how I love this comment, it’s just made me smile thank you so much and I’m wishing you all the very best for your project. Please let me know how you get on.

[@trinawilliams1395]

@@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove I will be happy to.....love to have your thoughts on my piece!

[@talktalknow461]

👍🏻 Great authentic looking patina. (Plus love the staging)

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

Thank you so much I really love the staging on this project as well. If only I lived in a villa in Tuscany

[@amandacundy2360]

Stunning results as always Jonathan, could quite easily have been sitting in a dusty country kitchen for years…. 🥰

[@veronikaroskoova]

Oh my world absolutely gorgeous ❤ please do more projects like this 😍

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

I do have another one in mind, something similar, but with a slightly different twist

[@linatabletquerido9215]

Wonderfull peace. I love it. Thanks ❤

[@carolynducan1765]

Enjoyed this tutorial for a fresh, old look! Love the color combination inside and out. Svenska blue is a favorite!

[@salinaraey5165]

Wow in studio it looked so yellow green, but the reveal shows more muted beige which I love!

[@pyewhackett1598]

So glad I followed you, bc this video was recommended when you dropped it. I love the information you provide, going over the colors and textures. I have project furniture in the garage I need to tackle so the car can fit back in and I can enjoy the completed projects. I got some shattered veneere and your painted furniture is lovely enough to make the paint or reveneere a choice to contemplate. ... BTW you are quite easily understood, and the music still good at 1.5 speed, top notch quality at either speed. Well done Jonathon.

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

Oh thank you very much and I’m wishing you all of the best for your project just go for it

[@skinnursern5852]

I learned so much. Thank you. The piece is stunning! You are so talented and wonderful to share your knowledge. I am going to try it!

[@denisesmith6359]

Well done

[@rebeccacolson9965]

Awesome tutorial Jonathon!

[@BettaChristina]

This is so beautiful 🥰 there are simple painters (like me) and there are true artists like you, such a pleasure to watch! Subscribed recently and I'm binge watching every video 😊 thank you for your expertise!

[@cindybakergambrel136]

Pure magic, that’s what you make with paint. This looks so old and the paint gives the piece such a vintage look. Beyond beautiful this is incredible.

[@lisachiboroski9930]

Wow Jonathan! This piece is exquisite! And your tutorial was simply fantastic as always. I love this piece, I have a pantry upcoming in my projects and I am reeling with the possibilities! Applying texture is intimidating, you really nailed the tutorial. Thank you.

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

Thank you so much, and I’m so happy that this one is definitely of use 😊😊

[@bethbartlett5692]

Yeah! Multiple, "it's a Cluster" How Fun!!! I'm going to Listen, then watch again later. You really worked hard on this piece, such Patience, and it looks Magazine Worthy. Great outcome and presentation! 💯 I'm doing "Mr M" chores today. Beth Tennessee, USA

[@cathyjackson5959]

Jonathan!! What a Wowser!! Not too much of a grungie look person, but I do so Love this!! Love the green and wood showing thru! I like smooth grungie if that makes sense!? Have both dogs & cats and definitely don’t their hair getting caught in all the texture!! That color inside!! I’m loving!! Told ElegantUpgrades-Taryn, that not such a blue person. She asked why-1980’s blue with ducks!! I looked around my bedroom, I have lots of new blues-mostly background. Your staging was Beautiful with the sienna wall, terra cola planter with the white and the plant. Absolutely Lovely❤️🌿❤️Daughter bought me your Art Nouveau bird stencil (just had to have it)!! Saw you do a board with it with Annie Sloan (I think)-her daughter had a 5-6 piece stencil for a blue Jean jacket? Anyways, wanting to do that stencil on 1 wall of my 22 foot wall-looking at Art Nouveau colors, etc. Can you do a project with that stencil? With true Art Nouveau colors? My main color is going to be green!! Love you Shari g your Special Magic with all of us!!💓🌿💓

[@brendajablonowski1668]

I'm addicted! I sit here and love watching you all day! You are a true artist! I know it would be difficult for you depending on the children's ages, but if you had a great big window the children could watch you, you would create another artist like you!!!

[@Angel-rv1mt]

I was sitting watching this at 2:00 am, my usual time, and I kept pausing wondering what the heck were kids doing outside at that hour! I was so glad when he mentioned the kids outside his studio.

[@debbytownsend2907]

Another amazing piece Jonathon … just my style of paint and finish

[@donnabennett2546]

Love you paint and finished designs.❤️

[@tatianamarinaki9820]

Great tutorial as always I love the heavy distressing!

[@LisaBell]

What I am loving about this in progress, is this lighter Paris grey and old white and the looseness of your application, leaves area in the textures that are slightly darker and they take on a life of their own, or, it's like laying in the grass looking up at the billowy clouds and seeing shapes that your imagination sees as little floral shapes and it's so beautiful.

[@LoriMcHale-p1y]

Absolutely incredible!! Love it!! Thank you for your video of your process!

[@DorothyHames]

Again I will comment how talented you are. Tk you so much for sharing all your talent with us!!! I can’t wait to try this 🩵

[@erniemueller3371]

Just when l think to myself, 'Ok, Jonathon, how are you going to get yourself out of this one?', you do it! I was a bit skeptical after the color wash, but the piece, as usual, turned out great! As you've said before - trust the process. I really enjoy your work, you are a true artist! Thank you for the videos.

[@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove]

Thank you very much I suppose when working on your project there is a place somewhere along the line where you think. Oh dear, I’m making a mistake but you have to just work through it 😊😊

[@lindalary7760]

Love your video’s!!!👏👏👏👏

Very cool treatment. I would have been tempted to color wash and distress the interior paint as well. Love the end result. Have a piece I would like to do this with. Thank you for the inspiration!!!❤

[@juliesheldon4772]

Love it! Wish I had the guts to do something like that. I just can't bring myself to the distressing to that extent. Someday maybe, lol
