I want to just let you know that I absolutely love your furniture creations. I'm fairly new to this, so I am learning so much from you. I've watched a ton of other videos, but yours by far have taught me the most! 💚💚💚
@@BellaRenovare wow! What a transformation! I also love small pieces like this! I have not tried the sea spray yet, but looking forward to it. Just curious, since you make everything look so quick and easy, how long did it take to do this piece? Lots of layers and dry times, etc. Did you have to space out over a course of days?
Splendid🙌🏻 Love that look 👀🤩 Perfect for that piece...so fun playing with that texture and color....someday I want to do that and I will....thanks to my great teacher❣️ thank you for sharing 😊kim
I love how this turned out!! I love dry brushing with a chip brush because the brush leaves so many different textures. I love the brown wax you used to give it that dirty old look. This came out so beautiful!! Hugs 🤗 Teresa
This is amazing! This piece now has so much impact. When you were first talking about this and how you you were going to make it colorful but neutral I thought,”Huh, how’s she going to do that???” ! Well you did it! This may be a small piece but I’m sure it will be the star of any room it is placed in. It shines! Another stellar job.
You are nothing but amazing and full of talent! I'm thinking "whaaaaaaatttttt" neutral and color and get a fun chippy look. This piece, has such character. I see that texture and it reminders me of old world, vintage linen fabric (if that makes sense) . INCREDIBLE! How I enjoy watching you create. Talent at its max!
@@BellaRenovare I WOULD sooooo be thinking the same way! Do you have a video that shows the reverse, where the white is the outer most layer and the darker colors peek through? I would like to see this before I attempt it on a top portion of a hutch that I actually turned into a bench. You have given me hope and something to do this weekend. - Pam
I love gothic anything! I was sick when you pulled out those colors, sea spray and then the dark wax. Oh me of little faith...it turned out amazing! The details really popped with the wet distress. I promise never to doubt again! 🤣
hahahahaha I often have that effect on people, at first they are like ooo ooo...o waitttt....okayyy this might work...okay she isn't as insane as I thought lol :) I like to keep you on your toes :)
Omg this unit is so cute, I'd be very proud to own this piece, you are our colour therapist through these strange times, shining colour like happy rainbows on a dark day.😍😘🥰❤
I am with ya. 6 a.m. and in pain so i cant sleep. I love this, some day i will let loose and give a piece texture! That was a hard request really, subtle that will go with everything and a pop of color, well you did it very nicely.
It looks like an old South American hacienda piece of hundreds of years ago, Crys'Dawwna. Rough textured and damaged by years and years of use. I had the same as with Christina's work, "Oh no, she's going to paint this cutie! "To "Oh my, gorgeous, well done!". You two always surprise me.
Beautiful piece of furniture...love the blue and white tames the moss color. I probably would not have the eye or patience to do this technique. You really rocked it❣
I love the texture on this! And the layering of colors...so good! It looks like it was hidden for centuries in the corner of an old monastery or something.
Thank you so much Donna. Don't be afraid honestly if you use the DB wax you can even get a wet rag to remove it if you don't like it, wait for it to dry and paint over it. That's why I really like using their stuff because it's user and error friendly lol
I absolutely love this grungy look 😍. We don't have sea spray in my region but I find that fine sawdust works well to. Cute cameo by your furry friend 😊
I am SOOO excited I caught this video. I have missed your last two ten minute Tuesdays! (makes me sad) This little piece is right up my alley. I love small items like this. I love texture! These paint colors are beautiful. Your blending always amazes me! Love this!!
The difference in this piece is amazing. I get so inspired by your work I want to try some of the techniques I've learned from watching your work. But I then get intimidated and scared that I won't be able to do what you seen to just magically do. ] think I ''ll have to be like Nike a d just do it! Thank you for sharing your talent and artistry!!!
Excellent video. It's a great little piece and you've given me some good ideas to try out. I like your videos because you explain and walk us through everything you do and you don't play music crazy loud. I'm definitely going to order that Spanish moss.. such a cool color
Thank you very much! I have tried to adjust my videos, so I LISTEN to the feedback I get, I add the lighter more almost blues music because I think it is soothing plus I hate those awkward silences when I am not talking. I am still trying to change and make videos better so I always try to listen to what YOU want and say :) I am glad to know that I am on the right track :)
Hi Crys’Dawna! I love this piece so much. You took it from ho-hum to old world elegant. Hope you and yours are doing well. Sending good vibes and lots of hugs. 💖
You are so very clever. I absolutely loved that piece and even though I am a beginner I can't wait to have a go! Again many thanks for sharing your wonderful techniques. All good wishes to you from me in North Wales x
That was a colour challenge, pulled it off really well. I am trying to introduce some blue into my living space, so a splash in cushion covers first cos I'm a decor wimp 😁
I'm very new to working with chalk paints, just a quick question. After you did all the brown wax at the end. Did you do anything else? Like seal it again? Since you can just wipe off the wax, does it eventually because permanent? Or should you seal again. Like with the easy peasy? or other? Thanks - love your work
That is stunning. We don't get Seaspray or Saltwash in South Africa so I have a recipe that seems to work quite nicely. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience as always.
Love it!!!! Thank you. Question please? I just opened a booth. I love colored pieces with texture. Other then the colors in this video, what colors will people buy that mesh well? I’m having such a hard time when color is what feeds my soul. Wish I knew how to help others appreciate color. Thank you for all you do sweet lady🥰
ahhh greta questions!!! I think tea rose and dropcloth would be a good combo, vintage duck egg, dropcloth, hmmmm there are so many, are you wanting to stay on the safe side of color?
@@BellaRenovare My problem is I have several pieces with color. I just love color. I’m being told I should do some neutral pieces. What is your opinion? Will anyone be drawn to color? Knowing you love color, do you throw in neutral pieces? Thank you 🥰
Oh, I love the look of this piece and it gives me inspiration for a "tiny table" that I just picked up for $5! It's small but mighty and I hope to make it look even mightier. Thanks for another informative and helpful tutorial!
I absolutely love this piece x it would look fab in my house x love the texture. My next texture piece is going to be paste in stencil, have you done a piece like that?? I Would love to see it 👍🏻😊
This piece looks legit! Really looks like iyou found it in an old farmhouse in the Euro countryside since before the war. Haha. I see the Louis Vuitton fleur circle thingys on its doors and would have to do it brown and gold. Does Dixie have a saddle brown type color? I bet they do. I was going to ask you if the dresser I want to do like the black and gold one you did that armoire or maybe I’ll do “In the navy “ & gold, it needs some trim to have something to put the gold gilding wax on. There currently is none, should I look for epoxyMolds? Or maybe he bendywood? I’m about to get paint for my LR walls and I also want supplies for the dresser ready. Ive got fuchsia fabric for the sofa. I’ll email you a photo of the dresser ok?I’ll do it in a second here. I got the drawers working and I like it ok considering it was free. Thanks for sharing this lesson in distressing 👍😇💯✅
ooh saddle brown they have chocolate and pine cone those are pretty close....that sounds like a cool idea too!!!! you should play around with some wood-u-bend they are so much fun!!!
Um yeah, I really love this one!! I have been feeling quite defeated lately with some attempts at blending and distressing and I think I might try some of these looks and techniques. Again, another great video and I am so grateful that you take the time to do these and share your talents with us!
So it depends that piece was really small so it took me a few days, it depends on the finish but in general I usually work on each piece for a week, but I also only do one piece a week because I blog and video each piece, back when I didn't do that I completed maybe 2-3 A week depending on the finishes :) I try to take my time. You get faster at things over time.
Perfectly crusty! 👌🏻
Thank you boo 😋
Liebe Cristona, bin sprachlos.....einfach wunderschoen...liebe gruesse aus Rom ♥️
vielen dank mein Schatz ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very Gothic with the design on the doors and the hinges and the textured and aged paint finish. I like it! 😀❤️
Thank you! 😊
This piece is so unique! I love the finish on this. ❤️ Sea Spray is so fun.
Thank you my amazing friend!! Yes sea spray is awesomeeeee

hahahaha I won't tell her....I am wayyy cooler anyways hahahahaha kiddingggg
lol i was also watching brandy's video and suddenly chrydawna video showed up

Yes I LOVE chip brushes from dry brushing too because of the crazy bristles lol!!! Thank you so much Teresa!!!
Oh I just love this video! The close-ups were excellent to see what you were doing. I bet your customer just loved this.
Thank you so much!
An amazing technique....I'm sure the person you did it for will love it!
He does!!! He lovessss it and the gothic look I feel like it goes perfect!!! Thank you Mandy :)
It’s very pretty! But curious as to how much did you charge doing that piece? It’s a lot of materials, DB paint is not cheap.
Wow!! Looks like something from an Italian vinyard!!
yes it does!!! can you tell my 4 years of living in Italy had a little effect on me?
Oh YES!!! I can see how that would do that!! Very nice piece!! Well done!
This is amazing! This piece now has so much impact. When you were first talking about this and how you you were going to make it colorful but neutral I thought,”Huh, how’s she going to do that???” ! Well you did it! This may be a small piece but I’m sure it will be the star of any room it is placed in. It shines! Another stellar job.
You are so welcome! Thank you so much Svea you are so great to me ❤️❤️
I adore this piece. The white dry brushing really highlights the texture. Genius! I might have to copy this in my own home.
yay!! thank you Jenny!!!! you should totally do it!!
Is it possible to make an old piece look older??? Yes, you just did it. The color is really pretty. Thank you for the sea foam info.
lol thank you Leah!!! you are so welcome!!!
OMGOODNESS I absolutely adore it. Just gorgeous ❤🇨🇦
Thank you so much my sweet friend :)

Oh thank you so os much, you are just so good to me :) I may try to just keep this piece maybe my client will just forget about it lol
@@BellaRenovare I WOULD sooooo be thinking the same way!
Do you have a video that shows the reverse, where the white is the outer most layer and the darker colors peek through? I would like to see this before I attempt it on a top portion of a hutch that I actually turned into a bench. You have given me hope and something to do this weekend. - Pam
@@pam-nyc actually......I am going to do that on a bench coming up!!!!!!!

Thank you so much! it is okay that you are a beginner!! Start on small pieces or even practice boards and you will be an expert in no time :)
Wow love it 😍
Thank you! 😊
increible mi friend... :D
gracias ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ha ha heyyyyy you have to start somewhere right???
Inspired! Thank you

wow just wow, I have all those products, have been having a hard time finding a piece of furniture to play with...til next time!
Thank you so so much!!
Excellent!!!
I'm very new to working with chalk paints, just a quick question. After you did all the brown wax at the end. Did you do anything else? Like seal it again? Since you can just wipe off the wax, does it eventually because permanent? Or should you seal again. Like with the easy peasy? or other? Thanks - love your work
You’re amazing
Thank you so much ❤️❤️
That is stunning. We don't get Seaspray or Saltwash in South Africa so I have a recipe that seems to work quite nicely. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience as always.
O no :( Hey at least you have a good recipe!!!! I know some people use baking soda and salt!! You are so welcome my friend :)

I do. I show the sides in pictures and often in videos. The last video I showed how I stenciled the side?
