Hi Heather, I started this and the oatbran looks almost peachy. Is that correct or did the store give me the incorrect color. I asked for Valsphar oatbran
Gawd there's some truly AWFUL people in the comments here telling this poor girl what to do and trying to make her feel bad for not crediting the "original inventor" - let me tell you something... This finish has been around decades but went out of fashion... And once you put it in the world wide web, you can be sure people will copy it, because they like it... Its a compliment, there's thousands of videos here doing the same thing, but for some reason certain "influences" end up with a kind of cult full of bullies who actively go out looking to tear someone down. Anyway, I LOVE THE DRAWS, im insanely jealous we don't get big furniture pieces like that where i live and I would love them! Keep up the good work!
Gorgeous! You did a fantastic job! The original hardware is such a score on those pieces! Thank you for teaching me this technique. Here goes! Fingers crossed 🤞
Thanks for the tip. I had a children’s broom from Dollar Tree like Black Sheep House recommended, but my 2 yr old granddaughter claimed it before I got the chance to use it. Now I can’t find another one 😅
I can only imagine where you will be in the next ten years. Heartwarming to watch such a young person take this endeavor so serious. You did an amazing job implementing your vision. The pieces turned out lovely. Lynn. Dodge City, KS
@@HeatherLewisssyou have potential.. very presentable and straight to the point... Success is with you and it's good that you love doing this... Cheers😊
I am a construction furniture supply designer for PB. admit this is good but if you see it in person it is really different. because the item goes through a long process just to paint it. and the wood is great for painting because it retains its strong natural grain
I did this exact technique with a deck staining brush and a whisk broom on my early 2000's dark wood nightstands. It turned out awesome and I can get many more years of use out of them!!!
I think keeping hardware n original feet was such a good idea! They look great!. Crys and bella renovara does this technique n shows different tips n even different brushes u can use to create different styles with this technique. I loved how these turned out n totally improved these 10 fold
Thank you! I’ll have to check that channel out! I’ve been in the mood to try new techniques recently. I JUST uploaded a new video on a new technique, you’ll have to let me know what you think!
I'm sorry for all the comments about the "original creator", as if every other technique out there that catches on and gets very popular has everyone keeping a tally of all the original creators and makes sure to mention them at the beginning of each of their videos. 🙄 But you certainly have been very gracious in your responses. Anyway, I enjoyed the video and don't care if you explained or showed cleaning the pieces before sanding, whether you use a brush or roller or why you didn't just spray paint instead, nor do I mind what primer you used. I watch tons of these types of videos, mainly to see the befores and afters, but also to see what techniques and things people use - out of curiosity, not to nitpick the details! I really liked seeing how you did these pieces and they turned out beautiful!!! Great job, keep up the good work 👍 👍
They turned out beautifully. I will definitely try this technique. Thank you so much. If you wanted a piece a little darker, would you suggest going over it with the glaze a second time, or use a darker colour underneath?
I just subscribed, watching from Greece. They look AMAZING! Don't change the hardware! They are gorgeous on these pieces! Keep walking ! Thanks so much for sharing
Beautifully done!❤ I wonder if this technique could be used as dry brush in opposite direction - to stain furniture first with dark stain and then swipe it with white?🤔
I love your energy and passion! I think it turned out nice. My only suggestion is to sand and paint with the grain. I seen on the sides where you were sanding side to side and up and down. Those you would want to go up and down with the grain. And yes, I think when you are putting on the paint it would look better to go one direction also. Please don't look at this as a negative as it is just advice is all. Love the color... keep up the great work!!!
Hi Heather . I just ❤❤ this technique. I was So impressed I’ve Subscribed to your channel! Good on ya girl for trying something new . It Turned out Gorgeous Can’t wait to see your Nxt project 🤗
Not gonna lie, I was dubious at first. I am not normally one of those who begs people not to paint over the wood grain but I thought the pattern on the top was pretty, just needed lightening. And I was worried about you painting over the caning, too. BUT THESE ARE GORGEOUS! So fresh, modern, and elegant. Great work, kid! 😉. I subscribed to see more surprises!
You are doing great and as for the comments even experts have off days and forget to go back over something sometimes At Least you're out there doing your thing meanwhile I'm still ...thinking...about making a video lol so yeah GOOD JOB! My space makes it REAL hard to manage
@@HeatherLewisss also, try not putting heavy glaze in corners. Rather paint close but then push in glaze from your up and down sweeping. That way you don't end up with darker corners.
Hand brushing works in this technique because any paint strike ridges left will blend in with the streaks. If you're serious about refinishing, reconsider about using a sprayer. There are small tents you can set up outside to spray and tbe finish is more professional.
Hi Heather. I loved how these nightstands turned out. Please tell me what finish you used for the paint (matte, satin, semi gloss or high gloss). I’m asking because this is exactly what I need to do for my dining room table. Love your projects!
I have bleed thru on a piece I’m doing now. Best way to quickly deal with it is to hit the area with some shellac. I keep a spray can handy just in case. Another tip grab a couple of furniture dollies -the flat kind with 4 wheels. Makes moving the pieces around so much easier (i like keeping them in the best light) 😉
Amazing look! My question is, what is the name of the music you used during the actual painting process? I have heard it in other TH-cam videos and l love it.
Love your finish! I would like to try this on some drawer fronts so the paint you used is that semi gloss and is it oat bran I just want to make sure I get the right type of paint thanks
They turned out fab! I saw a different video, but it was a flat table, which was easy, but I wasn’t sure how to go about it with the little mouldings and trim on my dresser drawers. So happy I found your video. Just subscribed 😊
I’m soo glad you found this video helpful and thanks for subscribing, it means a lot to me! I JUST uploaded a new video on a different technique. You’ll have to let me know what you think!!
Love the way these turned out. The first time I tried doing this ended up a catastrophe 😂. You did a great job on these. Can’t wait to see more of your content.
Do you know what you did wrong? I’m tempted to try this on a custom piece that didn’t turn out exactly how I wanted but don’t want to completely ruin it either!😅
I noticed some darker spots and on the sides you could really see your stop and start areas with your broom. I agree with you and think your brook was a bit too big for the size of the nightstands. Watch Black Sheep House as her technique with faux wood and linen look are amazing. I hope you found a buyer for them. Keep practicing as your technique will get better every time. Good job for your first attempt.
I like the paint color you used. I tried black sheep’s exact base paint color & exact technique. The latex paint was coming up from the small yellow broom bristles even after several days of curing. parts turned out good but I learned that if the wood has blemishes (a weird veneer issue), the glaze picked up these blemishes & I lost the striated grain affect in this damaged area which looked like a blob shadow that wasn’t apparent after the Zinzer block out was applied. I have since repainted this piece (large Hepplewhite buffet cabinet) in a mineral paint which fixed the problem but now I’m hesitant & hubs not liking this affect since I have some carvings & such & doesn’t think this will work with all the carved finishes. But I truly like how yours turned out & applause you. Do you mind sharing what base paint color you used? I like it & like your channel & of course I subscribed!
I’ve never tried the same base color as hers before, but I recommend always priming with a good primer if you aren’t familiar with how well the paint does. Thank you so much for the support. I used Oattbran by valspar as my base and then rustoleum decorative glaze
Thank you!! I typically prefer to brush paint that’s the only reason. I did JUST upload a video where I roll on paint though, you should definitely check it out!
I have seen this technique on youtube before. Typically they use deck stain brushes for detail areas. The broom head is good for large surfaces like table tops. Search pottery barn finish for users doing this technique so you can find the tools they use. Good for you for trying something new, looks good :)
Yikes, you broke the stoppers at the back of the drawers! Those are there so drawers cannot be pulled out completely without turning the stoppers to open position! 😁😁😁
Contrary to many uneducated opinions, this technique was not invented by anyone on TH-cam. I did this back in the 70's, 80's, and ever since. Let's see...wasn't that before there was TH-cam, or even the internet?...Yep! In the 80's I painted ivory on a whole waterbed wall bed with built-in armoires which were popular back then. It was all orangey oak, and I loved the outcome. I tinted my own clear glaze with a dark taupe (neutral) paint.
You really should clean your pieces before you sand because if you wait until after you sand you will be sanding any dirt and grim into the surface. I know you need to wipe it down again after sanding but it could really make a difference to your paint lasting and adhering.
Offloading the bristles means just taking paper towel or something and dabbing all the excess off before you swipe it across the surface so that it doesn’t become too dark. Because you can always go darker but you can’t go lighter without starting over! Thank you for watching and supporting!
I have a client that has a huge office in their home, with two walk to wall built ins and a huge desk! I’ve done this process on several pieces of furniture but I’m afraid it’ll be just too much on everything in their office… meaning… it’s going to be impossible to get a perfect consistency and may look “messy” thoughts?
I absolutely love this technique! You should check out the channel “Black Sheep House” She is the one I believe started this a couple of years ago by studying Pottery Barn furniture and replicating it. She does lots of different techniques of course and is amazing at those too but this particular one she’s the queen. You’ll love her channel. She makes it very easy to follow her steps.
Fantastic work! Please do not pay any mind to any “haters” ranting over who you should or should not credit. I guess Pottery Barn should be getting most of the credit here, lol - or the Chinese or whomever sprays the finish for PB. I did faux (wall) finishes 25 years ago but in no way did I “invent” it. I watch lots of videos from many TH-camrs and appreciate all.
@@WatchTashi Who exactly is the OG of this faux finish? Certainly not Pottery Barn. Should she give a shout out to the renaissance? Does it really matter? Does every word you’ve ever said your original word? Every thought you’ve had an original thought? Nope. When it comes down to it, every person plagiarizes every day and “copies” someone else’s ideas - often changes it up a bit to suit themselves. There hasn’t been an original thought in decades. Get over it and move on.
I’m not sure if I’m going to sell them but if I decide to i will prob list them for $400! You should check out the video I JUST uploaded though, that one I’ll most likely be selling for $600!
Try putting a big piece of cardboard (ex: packing box extended out) under your piece when painting. It helps to keep paint off the floor and gives your feet a break.
I came here to say the same. She uses a broom head from a child’s toy broom from Dollar Tree. I’ve seen tons of this finish on TH-cam and she is my favorite. Salvaged by K Scott does a fabulous job on this finish as well.
Thank you guys for all the love and support on this video! Would you try doing this faux wood technique for yourself??
First I’d give credit where it’s due.
@@WatchTashi again, check description

Thank you so much!
I have bleed thru on a piece I’m doing now. Best way to quickly deal with it is to hit the area with some shellac. I keep a spray can handy just in case. Another tip grab a couple of furniture dollies -the flat kind with 4 wheels. Makes moving the pieces around so much easier (i like keeping them in the best light) 😉
If you have a harbor freight near you, those dollies can be bought for ~$7? So much easier & safer than dragging on concrete.
I definitely have to do that! It’s all sooo heavy!
What is off loading? Dabbing the broom to remove some of the glaze?
20 Years ago i had a dresser that was a beige color and i took a paint brush and made brush strokes and it looked pretty good...who knew! Lol
I used a paint stain to make the brush strokes, turned out pretty good 20 years ago. You did a great job!

That can be fixed!

I’ve done this look for many years and you can use a large dry brush when you use glaze next time

What does offloading bristles mean? And how do you fix if a piece comes out too dark? THANK YOU
Offloading the bristles means just taking paper towel or something and dabbing all the excess off before you swipe it across the surface so that it doesn’t become too dark. Because you can always go darker but you can’t go lighter without starting over! Thank you for watching and supporting!

Hi,what is the color of the valspar paint that you used?
Get a cardboard box and punch holes to hold the feet upside down and you can paint them easily all over.
how much do you all “think” these two 0:00 would sell for? 💐
I’m not sure if I’m going to sell them but if I decide to i will prob list them for $400! You should check out the video I JUST uploaded though, that one I’ll most likely be selling for $600!
Try putting a big piece of cardboard (ex: packing box extended out) under your piece when painting. It helps to keep paint off the floor and gives your feet a break.
Yeah I need to get better at doing that!😂
