You did a excellent job ty for sharing. I got some painting to do but those fumes get to me badly. Seems like the mask hardly do any justice. If you know any mask that can tone the smell down while wearing them please let me know. Ty in advance!
Adding water to the paint per se is not bad since the paint contains water (from the name itself, water-based 😆). Do you mean not to add more water? She used 10% water, should she have put 5% add instead? When you said "reduce". I believe you cant use lacquer thinner, or paint thinner to a "water-based" paint. You can add "Floetrol" to ensure none of brush marks left behind

@ARayofSunlight & using a gray or lighter colors can Open up & change a rooms appearance when a room is Not spacious. Also with changing a Furniture's color can also show the designated areas appearance & type of peice chosen for colorful accent!
The wood grain popped up like that because of the water you added into the paint. It caused swelling in the wood. Reduce or don't add the water and then it won't have the grain raise up plus you won't have to apply so many coats. Hope that helps everyone. It turned out beautiful.
She didn't remove original finish and then put 2 coats of shellac on it before painting. Seems unlikely the water would have seep into the grain. The grain was likely already raised from long term exposure to humidity.
I just received a quote to do for my bedroom set and 2 extra pieces for $2200. I don’t have that kind of money! I will try this one piece at time. Thank you 🙏🏽
👌🏼 another great product that works well is KILZ bonding primer. 25 a gallon but it also repels water and mildew and coats ikea type glossy furniture, plastic, metal. It also makes it so you barely use any paint. Thanks for this! ❤
Kiltz is a great product but has a horrible chemical smell which is off putting for people with allergies. It will cover almost anything and does retard mold growth.
my desk has to be painted in my office i have a new craft table that was built in and will be hard to move to get my desk out so I will have to use kilz because i wont be moving it and don't wanna spray in a small room
Great tips here. I’m painting a large dresser soon. I’m gonna sand the top and give it a clear stain and paint the rest so I’ll spray it with Shilac. Nice job on that table came out great.
Easy, affordable and straight to the point. I love your voice, your simple instructions and the warm quality of this video. Your work is beautiful. I just subscribed. Thank you.
This was such a soothing video. Your voice and tone were very nice and easy to follow. The table turned out amazing! I'm going to attempt to do the same thing to an old desk I have. Thanks again for such an informative video.
I’d rather people buy painted wood furniture than buy cheap shit that was made in a factory that will end up in a landfill in 10 years. You’re right, eventually someone will decide to remove the paint from this piece, and it will still be a perfectly good piece of furniture when they do. If someone went to TJ Maxx or Hobby lobby trying to buy a little side table like this, it would cost them over $100, and it would be made out of shitty press board.
Me as well. Not a fan of painting detailed or vintage wood furniture that can otherwise be restored and kept with original finish. Only run of the mill furniture should be painted.
Looks great ,I picked up a tip from you to coat my table and buffet with milk paint first then my final color coat with a poly finish.Hope I got that right .Better watch video again before I start
I think it turned out beautifully! That said, for the "you should've left the beautiful wood" 🙄 folks. Different strokes for different folks, and brace yourself...not everyone likes natural wood. Yes, a shocking, I know. TONS of channels focus on natural wood restoration. Wouldn't it make more sense to watch something that you like?
The degreaser spray and a scuffing pad to start as a “ wet sand “ ( would have taken the same amount of time with a better prepared surface ), wipe it down with a clean damp rag. A can of rust oleum primer and a can of rust oleum topcoat and you would’ve been finished by lunch. The paint would last for 20 years.
It's nice but pretty basic. Highlighting the accents on the front would make it pop more. It's very expensive if you don't have a use for the left over supplies.
BEAUTIFUL OUTCOME! MY TV STAND AND DVD/BOOKSHELVES ARE CHALK WHITE. I ORDERED BOTH A COFFEE TABLE AND MATCHING END TABLE FROM AMAZON WHITE. BUT WHAT CAME WAS AN EGGSHELL AND LIGHTER CREAM. U CAN ABSOLUTELY TELL. MY TEAL AND WHITE LIVINGROOM STILL LOOKS GREAT BUT U CAN SO TELL THE DIFF IN COLORS. I AM GONNA GET THE SUPPLIES AND PROB USE THIS WEEKEND FOR THE PAINT PROJECT. CURRENTLY LOOKING AT VIDZ LIKE YOURS FOR INSPIRATION/INSTRUCTION.
Wou this came out beautiful, i have 2 21x21 tables black that I just love and this is even the color scheme i was , looking for. Thank you im definitely saving my tables
That’s expensive paint .. I’ve used it before . I see your technique : use shellac In Place of sanding , Thin the paint to eliminate brush strokes . Spray topcoat to save time and money. I think it came out great . * note to self: when using a light color over wood and eliminating primer .. don’t thin expensive paint SOOO much. I’m sure it didn’t bug you to do four coats on a small piece , though . For flipping I’d DEFINITELY DO THIS. At my house, I’ve learned to ALWAYS sand and prime . Im super hard on things .
I didn't know you can paint furniture without sanding first, so I'm glad I saw this video. Next project I won't feel bad about repainting w/out sanding.
It turned out great, well done! I find using a foam roller brush makes the job faster and ensures there are no brush strokes etc. Is there any reason you prefer a brush over a roller?
Nice. Hey I did hear another artist say never add the water right into the paint can as the bacteria in the water causes a chemical reaction after time, and when you paint something later with that paint the actual piece can smell bad weeks or months after you paint it 😩
Water based paint over shellac then sealed with poly I doubt that will last very long at all. You shouldn’t mix water based with acrylics and poly.. never advised. This will peel or scratch or bubble or flake before too long at all.
I love the color choice 4 coats seem like a lot I suggest you choose different pull handle maybe glass or gold brushed for a pop of color silver brushed fir a more neutral look but much prettier painted❤️
I think I would have sanded this and treated the natural wood with some linseed oil and sealing wax because natural wood is really beautiful. I would have changed those knobs too.
You’re such a good teacher and you’re very talented!! It’s beautiful!! I’m only saying this since you asked for peoples opinion that the little knobs I’d paint black or maybe a pop of color just for contrast. Did you ever do other pieces where you added a pop of color? If so I’d like to see😊
That is so beautiful thank you so much for sharing and teaching us this but I would put a color where the front of it like a black or some thing that’s in the
The wood grain popped up because of the added water. If adding water always sand the surface down a bit between layers of paint❤ Otherwise lovely job ❤️ well done

quiet, simple tutorial. No cheesy or loud music....what a breath of fresh air. thank you.
HATE loud piano music!

Oil based paint stops this
Wonder what those products are called in the UK? Shellac?
I think it's gorgeous, I would have used a roller though and a brush for the fiddly bits. Much quicker.
She didn't remove original finish and then put 2 coats of shellac on it before painting. Seems unlikely the water would have seep into the grain. The grain was likely already raised from long term exposure to humidity.
@@wendynicholss6886 I LOVE fiddly bits (and bobs LOL)
You had my attention at “no sanding”. Tfs❤️

I hope you tried it! I see that your post was 1 year ago. 👍 🎨
Please post your results
Turned out beautiful! And no sanding - the best part.
Really beautiful outcome. You're a very good teacher giving all kinds of info step-by-step. Great that there's no sanding!

Are you saying oil based kilz after or instead of shellac spray?
Yes I like Kilz better. Shellac is trickier to use, more expensive and has a smell.
Oil or water based are equally good.@@amandachilds5290
Love the fact that no sanding is required
It's thecdame with Waverly Chalk paint. No primer needed, two coats is usually good.
High quality paint no BRUSH is needed
Mineral paints and Milk paints don’t require sanding. It’s still beneficial to lightly sand.
Great tips here. I’m painting a large dresser soon. I’m gonna sand the top and give it a clear stain and paint the rest so I’ll spray it with Shilac. Nice job on that table came out great.

Thanks for including all the products you used. The table is completely transformed. Love it!
It looks vintage and funky at the same time. Love it.
Great instruction. Sounds like a reasonable amount to spend. Looks perfect! I will try this with my daughter's bedroom set.🙂
Wow, thanks for taking the time to do this video and explain in precise easy way. Excellent!
I agree ! These videos are the best!!!!

Never ever thought of adding water to paint, but if it's waterbased paint, why not :) Thanks for the tip!
Appreciate your patience with the process! It shows…
I love it! I immediately need to paint something 😅
In twenty years, somebody, somewhere is going to make a TH-cam video undoing what you have just done.
It’ll probably be me in less than 20 years! 😂
😂
Good for them...who cares...

It was beautiful just the way it was !
You make that look easy but I know it’s not! Loved watching this transformation. Thank you for sharing.

Can You Tell Me Where ?
You Purchased Your HAND HELD DRILL
Thanks

SUBSCRIBED 👍
I think having a contrast to whatever wall is first decision! Love this about to do it for a tall shelf.
I liked the before pictures. Love natural wood and if that took sanding the so be it.

Absolutely beautiful! Saving your video, have an old sewing cabinet that I can finally redo! Thanks so much! New subscriber. 😊
Nice job. Pretty. Nice to see a white peice usually colors... refreshing.
Have to say was shocked of the makeover cost tho $$ beautiful outcome ❤
Wow. So many great tips in a straightforward not bs tutorial. Tysm
No worries!
Beautiful! Thank you for the detailed instructions!
Thanks for watching!
Such a difference with a few coats of paint! I love that there is no sanding involved. I will try this 👍

Wait what I need these direction to do my stairs lol
Well done, lucid, helpful, no extraneous filler
It's nice but pretty basic. Highlighting the accents on the front would make it pop more. It's very expensive if you don't have a use for the left over supplies.
This is fantastic, it looks beautiful, unrecognizable. Thank you!
Looks great, I need to watch again to take notes. Thanks

Looks amazing smooth. Love it.

Thank you so much for the teachings wow I am going to do my old coffee table I believe it's going to be nice God bless you dear
Very beautiful ended. I like it very much. Good job! Thank for the idea. I my used it some day. God bless you, and He love you too.💕😀

Who carries general finishes milk paint products?❤
You might be able to but don’t mix water based paints with acrylics,polys and shellac
That’s kind of rule number one.
Use the same type of paint .
It turned out great, well done! I find using a foam roller brush makes the job faster and ensures there are no brush strokes etc. Is there any reason you prefer a brush over a roller?
Thx u so much there are few who show what to do on all ready stained wood. Thx u.
Love the clean new fresh look..great job and demo
Thank you!
Nice transformation. I'll have to check out General Finishes! Thanks for the info.
Nice. Hey I did hear another artist say never add the water right into the paint can as the bacteria in the water causes a chemical reaction after time, and when you paint something later with that paint the actual piece can smell bad weeks or months after you paint it 😩
I love the finished product and color, great job.
Glad you like it!
🥰Looks 100% BETTER!!!!
I would rather clean & dry it. Apply transparent wood stain to keep the beautiful wood grain of the table.
Love it. I have been looking for a paint to use that needed no sanding.
Water based paint over shellac then sealed with poly
I doubt that will last very long at all.
You shouldn’t mix water based with acrylics and poly.. never advised. This will peel or scratch or bubble or flake before too long at all.
Wow! You did nice.. I'll do it also on our old coffee table & chairs.. Thanks for sharing 😊👍💖🙏
Thank you for all the incredible tips. I will follow your instructions to the t.
Have a great day! 🤗
Looks great! Love no sanding. ❤
Nice job and good to know that sanding is not always necessary
Very Attractive Transition..Ole to BoLD!! Fresh!
Awesome video! Definitely a ray of sunlight
Beautiful job! Wow! I learned something here. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful job. I like the paint color.
IMO- Different knobs would have been much cuter on this handsome end table. Using a foam roller results in no brush marks.
That is great and beautiful.
Thank you so much for sharing your art❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
Very nice. It looks really good and thank you for the step by step instructions.
Very cozy table.
I think this is great, I see many more uses this can be used
Great job. Thanks for sharing your work.
Love the self leveling!
Very nice. Drawer pulls match perfectly. 💞
Thank you so much for the tips! Your table is awesome!
Thanks so much! 😊
Can you please do a video on distresding/antiquing a piece? Thanks so much!
I love the color choice 4 coats seem like a lot I suggest you choose different pull handle maybe glass or gold brushed for a pop of color silver brushed fir a more neutral look but much prettier painted❤️
I love the grey too. Good job.
Command paint by Benjamin Moore, satin finish. Highly recommend! No primer, no sanding, quick drying to a beautiful finish.
Great job it's beautiful
Great job but I would always sand to make sure the paint sticks. Good technique.
i never thought about spraying with sellac first
Beautifully painted
Painting such beautiful wood..sacrilege!🪵
The colour of the wood was tacky!
@@MissMariQueen Nope it is classic. White and gray are tacky.
I think I would have sanded this and treated the natural wood with some linseed oil and sealing wax because natural wood is really beautiful. I would have changed those knobs too.

Awesome! Beautiful & Easy!🌹👍☺️
The wood grain popped up because of the added water. If adding water always sand the surface down a bit between layers of paint❤
Otherwise lovely job ❤️ well done
Cool, thanks!
Very 😊 nice it 👀 looks great… I would put that in my living room…keep up the good work very helpful information…😇 Thank you for sharing 😻
Goodness this is gorgeous
$15 wow which drift store was that? Here in Florida a table like that second hand is $50
Salvation Army drift store
You should use acetone to thin the paint
Great job 👏😍 I am going to repaint my shelf soon, thank you 🙏
Thanks! Good luck!!
I like it. It looks great. I have a couple of end tables I might be doing them.
That’s very cool. Looks very nice. I want to try that.
Looks amaizing smooth good for you .
