Hi! My name is Shannon and I own a little business called Black Sheep House where I refinish furniture. This business provides our family with extra income and is a major creative outlet for me! I started this channel to help others to make their homes more beautiful and to help other furniture painters learn tips to increase their skills. I'm glad you're here!

Hello, I tried this painting technique and did great work. The bottom of my kitchen cabinets is great. Now, I don't know what to do with the top. Because the upper part is painted in a classic style and is very textured 😅. you are great, thanks
Very nice
Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included th-cam.com/users/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.
Great tip, I hadn't heard of that one so maybe you did invent it! lol In exchange, I've got a tip for you! When working with dark finishes put a little of the dark paint into the polyurethane and mix. It makes for a more streak resistant application!! Hope you find this helpful (:
That’s a great tip I need to try out!
Great tip too thankyou
If you buff using 0000 steel wool after applying a few coats of polycrylic it will smooth out any texture leaving you with a glass-like smooth finish
Oh wow, I’m glad to hear that working for you! I have heard that the steel can cause rust under the finish so I was too afraid to try!
@@blacksheephouse it definitely can when using a water based product.
Happy to see you keeping these pieces alive. We are in a ever moving world where large beautiful yet heavy pieces no longer have a place in the Ikea once and toss junk.
Painting furniture black is one of my most favorite things ever. It just looks so good and the contrast in a lighter color with it is amazing.
❤️
I tried your polyurethane method on 3 tables. Works like a charm! Thank you. Now I’m going to try a black piece like this. I look forward to your videos.
Yay!!! Thank you.
I paint the exact same way and my husband thought I was crazy! How funny. Love love your tip on the top coat. Very helpful. Subscribed.
That dresser is really professional looking! I remember when the before picture dresser was in style!
Nice tip to use the foam roller after the brush, to smooth the surface.
That “top coat” application technique is brilliant.
For a perfect finish every time mix a small amount of your colour in with your clear top coat.
Hi friend
Good idea, thanks
Yes 👍
How have I never thought of this? Lol thank you for the tip!
What clear top do you recommend?
I have used a wipe on method for years with perfect results even on high gloss kitchen cabinets. In a clean open bowl add oil based polyurethane 1 part and mix ½ of that amount with mineral spirits or xylene thinner clean the surface with a tacky cheesecloth then I use a thin cotton kitchen cuptale about a 4 x 4 folded to apply mixture in an up & down or side to side motion. Just do not apply thick coat & not smooth or you'll get a run. Let fully dry sand with 1000 or 2000 grip paper & clean /apply again then again at least 3 coats up to 6 depending on expected wear. Surface just as if professionally sprayed.
Hey can you please guide me which paint is best for furniture? Normal wall paint, chalk paint or matte enamel paint?
Wow I've been a Furniture artist for years and never thought of this ..
THANK YOU !!!!¡
🙌❤️❤️❤️
I do a similar thing. I paint all my furniture and apply poly topcoat with the dish sponges from dollar tree they come in the five pack. I have an extremely smooth surface, but I generally do multiple and thin coats!
The sponges work better with chalk paint, it’s ok with latex but requires the exact hand pressure and amount of paint.
I use a car waxing sponge and a few thin layers of polycrylic. Works great, no streaks or bubbles. Similar concept as yours. 👍
I really appreciate when women share their techniques. Im certainly going to try. I wonder if the same results comes out with different paint.
I did this technique today and the results were great. Previously I used foam brushes...but they generate so much "foam" and don't cover as well so you have to work the product so much longer in the same area. Using these rollers resulted in a smoother finish with almost no need to sand between coats.
Beautiful finish …. Now I can paint my brown table black
I just added poly to my black dresser yesterday and I used this technique. It did not go on as easily as yours does, felt very sticky. I used Minwax water based poly. Also, I had a LOT of bubbles! It almost looked soapy. I will sand with 400 today and put another coat on. Fingers crossed it looks good in the end!!!!
Beautiful! Thank you for the quick video, thanks for jumping through each step quickly, concisely, and smoothly, and not dragging out the video. I hate that! You showed us the steps and got your personality in there in one quick video. Subscribed! Now give me more lol
Can't believe you dont need a drop cloth! Flawless!!!
The finish was flawless! But Irene, I’m a BIG mess maker 🤣 ask my husband!!! It’s just cheap laminate flooring I was given for free and I laid it out in the garage to keep the garage floor clean...er, I just sand or scrape the mess off when I’m ready to take picks
What amazing tips !! Thank you so much. It looks incredible. I struggle with dark colors and brush strokes so I truly appreciate the tip!
You made this DEAD furniture ALIVE.
Splendid work......!!!
Thank you ☺️
I loved this technique and everything about the video (your tips, concise video, your calming voice, etc). Can’t wait for your next video. A big thank you from London!
Hey London hey!!! Thanks for the support and encouragement ❤️
I loveee that you did a close up! That made me feel better about my painting skills.
I tried the brush on-roll off technique today and it's amazing! can't wait to do my next piece of furniture.
I’m so glad I recently found you! Your techniques are so different than any other. You’re a true artist. I love your smooth sleek designs as well as the other end of the spectrum, Kaćha’s all the textures and color blends on a piece. 😁 You rock.
I’m glad you’re here!! 😃
Hi friend
I've been using white primer and black spray cans by Montana with a fat tip in order to cover a bigger are.
So smooth 🤩 I just started using a sponge method as well thanks to you! ✨🌺✨
Yes iv been using the roller in this manner as well glad to see that another experienced refurbisher does also.
I am loving these suggestions because I literally cannot fathom getting a sprayer right now even though that seems to give such a nice finished result. Your idea looks so much cheaper, easier and a lot less messy!
Amen! Spraying is such an ordeal and it’s all or nothing, you can never walk away from it till you’re done. I do love the finish but sometimes it’s not worth the hassle!
@@blacksheephouse Yeah the amount of off-spray is just too messy for me. I would have to be wearing a hazmat suit because I wouldn’t even want that stuff to be getting on my skin! 😷
Thanks for the lesson! I'm just getting started on my big project.
The paint quality also matters 👌🏻
Yes it does. I’ve been working on a piece for what feels like forever. I’m giving it one more try and then I’m giving up on it. Never have I had this many problems and I finally realized it’s the cheap paint I used! 🤦🏻♀️
Never again.
Damn efforts you made😎
I have painted hundreds of pieces, and I am so sad that I am just now seeing this *insert cry face* .. BUT my future feels very bright and I am excited for the next project >:)
6:13 I feel you on that one aha!! I went to school for industrial engineering…and we all are engineers in our own right. The quote goes engineers make things and industrial engineers make things better…thanks again for sharing!!
Haha, right!! Thanks for watching!!
You could use your poly technique with those high density melamine sponges! They're high density and here in asia they're real cheap. Amazon might have them. Give them a try!
Great tip!
I use a paintbrush or a roller first, then gently wipe over with a dry foam brush. Takes about 3 days to lay out to a spray paint like finish.

Gorgeous! I love your use of both the traditional and temporary hardware.
Thanks so much! 😊
Great tip...any dense sponge will work too. Tip when painting drawers in is to put tape about six inches back from the front. When painting the sides of the front you line the drawer to the taped area and no accidents.

You truly just helped me with that one!! I'm definitely doing on my next client's furniture. Looks like it saves a lot of time! 🥰
Yay!! ❤️
That turned out awesome! I want to try this on my bathroom cabinets.
Thank you so much for a super helpful video! Have you done a video on applying the same black finish to chairs and table legs?
Beautiful video! Thank you for taking the time to show us all your tricks. I appreciate it.
Glad to!
I’m impressed. I was searching tips on spraying a fine finish on cabinets when I came across your. I’ve sprayed my entire house inside and out with no texture walls (that’s tricky) and now I’m doing cabinets. That came out great but may I offer some advice. If you sand between coats you will be amazed with the finish you get. It’s a pain but well worth it. Good luck and thanks for the video.
You did invent this! I’ve been painting furniture for years and have never seen this technique. Nice! ❤️
🤩🤩🤩
I use the Dixie Bell blue sponge that works pretty much like this sponge roller. the roller would be a better application for wide flat surfaces as it is wider than the round sponge. the sponge does have a shape to it that makes it great for moldings. li will use a sponge roller on the next project with flat drawers and on the long sides. But I will stick with Dixie Bell for the curved and inset pieces/drawer fronts.
Oh wow I need that Dixie bell sponge! Thanks for the tip!
You’re seriously stupid talented! Love all your tutorials and honestly look forward to every new one Uploaded or one i maybe haven’t seen yet, but I don’t think there is one! Please keep sharing!
Aww, thank you so much for saying that! I’m glad you’re liking the content because there’s lots more coming!
You are a genius!!, thank goodness for your videos, you helped me so much with painting with black. Thank you!!!
that was truly amazing. I wish I had known that before I did my black furniture. I might just redo it.
I love your technique, and you are an amazing teacher of professional furniture transformation
Hi, Nice and simple! This is something that’s is easily sold in stores for 8-900 hundred dollars… One thing, Was that a a dryer with a brush that u went around the chest with? After sanding.
i tried this and piece came out great. thank you
I’m going to try that poly on my next dark paint project. Thx!
That trick is still awesome but I’ve found an even better way to avoid streaks these days, check out my updated version th-cam.com/video/ycxzn5F5HRM/w-d-xo.html
Absolutely STUNNING outcome!!!
I thank you for sharing your secrets.
I can't wait to try this. It will be my first attempt and I believe this was just the guidance I was looking for.
It was interesting that you used a generous amount of the protective coating - I have watched so many videos and they say use sparingly and the piece I am doing at the moment (newbie at this) has stroke marks everywhere in certain light - so will definitely be following your technique! Thanks so much for this very helpful video.
I use both both of those. Paint and clear coat. Funny I have ADD as well and Iam alway looking for an easier and faster way to do things. Love the roller idea. Look beautiful.
Haha! Well at least I’m not alone ❤️
Wow, that went from my parents outdated dresser to my modern dresser. I would had never believe that was even the same item from the before or after pictures. Also, didn't realize how big of a difference even small changes such as the knobs would make. Was so excited to try this until looked up the price of the paint, wow, will have to find a cheaper version or inflation sure has increased the price of paint since last looked several years ago.
paint is cheaper than a new dresser.
Wow! That's actually so elegant!
What a great tip! I will definitely try that, the hardware is such a pretty color too. I would love to try that black milk paint it looks really sharp
Love all your video and you have saved my bedroom set with your painting techniques. I have a Request - faux Walnut. I’d like to redo my kitchen cabinets with lower cabinets walnut. Pleeeease help. Ty ty
Hi Shannon! I love all your down to earth personality and videos, this is a great idea, I’ve used a sponge (a round one) but this roller one goes much faster 🙌 thanks for sharing 🙏
Yay! I’m so glad they are helpful to you and glad you’ve stuck around, Ninna! Let me know if you have any requests fir future vids, I’m always looking for ideas!
He owsome will try it
I really liked it
That finish looks great! Using the roller that was is a great idea!
I love your ideas and you make it look so easy! I’m tempted and inspired to paint my 1980’s bedroom furniture from beige to black!
Thankyou for the tip. I use a damp cloth and same results . But i will try this one too.
No gloves 🧤 No floor protection …so impressed by your dexterity.
I’d usually have paint on my t-shirt that I would be wearing under an apron, and some paint in my pockets. On the floor too. Sometimes the dog as well 🐕
😂🙈
I tried it after years of hating poly lol. It worked amazingly and my piece looks awesome! thank you for the help!
That’s awesome to hear!!!! That makes me so happy! seriously so glad you commented ❤️
Nice finish! I’ve been using Dollar Tree sponges that have scrubbiest on one side to get the finish you get. I don’t use the scrubby side! I just found the sponges there and thought I’d try them and they work! No brush strokes on black furniture!
wow good try and result is outstanding
Just discovered your channel because it’s 4 am where I am and I woke up saying hmm I’m going to change my dresser black this weekend 🤣🤣 thank you for the amazing tips! (I too look for faster, cheaper ways to do things lol)!
Love the enthusiasm! Enjoyable video to watch. Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for the tip wife and I just bought some lamp black and restored a very orange pine bedroom set from marketplace. After two coats it wasn’t what we were looking for but we loved it so much we stopped there and the roller method worked great. It ended up being a very nice brown color and the wood grain shows through. And if we want it to be all black we still have that option in the future. Thanks for the advice
Lead with the heavy side of the frame. That will help avoid lines or runs 😀
Thanks!
Wow wow wow! I this is gorgeous....now if only mine turns out this nice
Thank you. Love from Malaysia.
Beautiful! It looks like it has a blue tine
Thanks! In person it’s like a slightly softer piano black, the name is lamp black by General finishes
Great information thank you so much 😄
love the tips newbie here trying to work on my own furniture thanks.
Thank you for this marvellous tip. Beautiful finish.
Om gosh!This dresser turned out so beautiful 👍 Thank you for the tips👍
Lifesaver!! I was about to abandon this piece of furniture lol! Painting technique worked perfectly 😌🙌 I haven’t tried this top coat method yet.. you’re the best!
Wow...That went on perfectly! Top coats are evil, I always have trouble with them. I will definitely give that a try. Thank you. That dresser turned out beautiful.
Haha, yes I have had some battles with topcoats!! This is my new favorite application method for paint and topcoats, I'm hooked!
Shannon I am planning to paint my coffe table and side table…it’s veneer on top of wood…the table top is square and the veneer has a geometric pattern - the veneer wood grain goes in 4 different different directions- I want to send you a picture…just for your opinion…maybe I should just disregard the veneer pattern…I want to go for your pottery barn finish on it. Thx!! Betsy
You can just go all the same direction and it’ll turn out great, I’ve done it on a similar pair of side tables. If you wanted to you could do a thin coat of wood filler mixed with water like I did in the last video and that’ll give you more texture to cover the pattern, happy painting!
So glad I found you. Not new to peiting but definitely new to Furniture flipping. That piece looked amazing and I look forward to learning more from you

This is very nice and helpful. I'm going to save this and use on my diy table.
Just found you! I've watched 2 of your videos so far and I'm so inspired. Love your style and you have a nice voice, so you are easy to listen to. I've got a set of bedroom furniture that I've never liked the color, so I think I will repaint them! You make it seem really easy. I'll start with the nightstands before tackling the bigger pieces.
Very clever invention and you're so sweet but you should take full credit:)
So smooth, cool, & elegant! 😍😍👌👌
You have a real talent.
Thanks for sharing. Definitely aa professional job. You made it look so easy I think I'm going to try it.
That looks so go! I’m repainting my piece with this technique. Thank you!
