    In this video, I show you how to paint an old vintage dresser with paint and stencils. For this project, I used Beyond Paint furniture paint, which is self-sealing, a bonder, and primer all in one.
    How to use Beyond Paint: Make sure your surface is clean and dry. A roller is recommended if you'd like to avoid brush strokes; a paintbrush can be used for smaller sections where you need to fill in areas. The paint is self-leveling, which means it covers surface imperfections. Self-sealing, as well, which means you won't need a sealer if it's not a heavily used piece of furniture.

    You are amazing ! I especially enjoy that you include your children in your projects . You are teaching them a lesson that will go with them their entire lives ! You are a precious mother ! My parents started a family in their 30 'S and my father would train the kids how to sell build stuff....my father could do anything ! He bought cars rebuilt them and painted them and sold them right there on the corner in El Paso tx where I grew up . He was amazing just like you. Well I was the baby of the family and when he picked up a hugh truck load of watermelon s and cantaloupe he trained my brother and sister how to sell door to door in English and Spanish . ..I always wanted to go but because I was the baby I was left behind . He built these little stools with them so they could see the basics of how things were built . But when it came time for me I was yet left out again . My brother grew up and became a great sales man with Nabisco . But there was one thing that always bugged me was this. He bought a nice piece of property with land a a nice house . I had moved away from Texas when I married this clown well anyway when I moved back I stayed with them for a while in their grand house they always bragged . What kinda drove me crazy was every door knob in the house was loose or broken . He never even tried to fix any of them I mean anything in the house . ..nothing my daddy spent time with him to show him how to care for things and I got left out of that entirely . Oh well I have taken care of things when needed and I didn't have my daddy show me I figured it out myself . And I the old lady who is 66 is still trying to get things done . When you did the makeover of you pantry you mentioned something to pretreatment the wood before you stain the wood . Well my precious daughter and I live in a small duplex and I came up with a plan to put up shelves so I would have a place for pretty stuff portraits and stuff . So I have shelves in the living room bedroom and kitchen . Now I can decorate with out taking up floor space I do not have . Now I can't say they are very level but when I throw up some greenery flowers pictures I don't think anyone would notice that much . I will stain the wood when I can get to it but I will watch your pantry show before I start . I'm in the middle of making a chandelier for my daughter's room. I saw this diy and I am copying it but I have discovered that diys aren't always the cheapest way to get something . Hahahahaha ! Thank you for your inspiration ! You are wonderful !

      Hey there Elizabeth! I love hearing about how your dad taught your family how to sell and built. What a hardworking man! You should have been able to go along and learn too. Thankfully, today we have UA-cam! 😁 You have just reminded me of how important it is to teach my children what I know. I allow them to help when they can, but I need to get them to be more hands on, for sure. Thanks for making me understand this. And I hope your shelf staining goes well! You sound very proud of them, crooked or not. 😉

    I was so happy to come across your video. I have a dresser that I want to paint, but had no way of bringing it downstairs to the outside. Discovering Beyond Paint is a blessing.
    I ordered it in Soft Gray. Then I saw your video using the soft gray on a French provincial dresser. That’s the style of my dresser. Perfect!!!
    Thanks for your videos.

    I stumbled upon this video while I was searching for ways to fix up a dresser that I have from my parents. It has been in my family for eons but it needs to be painted and spruced up, it is sturdy, the hardware is perfect, fits a ton of clothing, it's just that the outside of the thing looks its age and does not match my decor or style. The dresser itself as far as the finish looks like the one in this video before it was done. I never heard of this type of paint before, I don't really get to do this kind of thing often. I was worried about my lack of work space, but I like that I won't need to move the thing out of the house to work on it. Glad I found this, gonna look into it!
    Definitely Subscribed though!

    That looks so pretty. Looks like you covered the drawers in a nice high end fabric.
    Quick tip: put a magnet (or two) in the bag with your dresser’s hardware. That way if you have a spill fewer pieces will scatter.

    This reclaim paint looks amazing. I had not heard of it. I'm going to check it out. Chalk paint works amazing too. I painted my old laminate dresser with it and the results were great. It does not bleed through and does not require prepping. I make my own chalk paint using Calcium carbonate and latex paint.

    • @ThriftDiving
      @ThriftDiving  7 років тому

    Love the bloopers at the end. This has been helpful for yet another project, 2 nearly free pieces of overstocked hotel furniture in the living room that I bought with the intention of painting. So glad I found this video. Donna D.
