  • Welcome to Copper Cactus DIY, my space for all things furniture refinishing, furniture flips, and faux finishing! I'm a pro faux finisher and love my job. When I moved to Arizona I wasn't able to continue doing faux in client's homes. That's when I ignited the spark of taking my skills and applying them to furniture pieces big and small.
    I'm Jenn and can't wait to share my years of finishing and painting with all of you! In this week’s video I’m taking part in the fall challenge or Halloween challenge with over 20 other UA-cam channels. In this video I’m fully transforming a curbside find into a romantic goth, Halloween inspired piece. I learn a ton of new skills and try some cool stuff so I hope you enjoy!
    Don't forget to subscribe if you like furniture makeovers, and decorative painting. That's what I do here and would love to have you join me on my adventures. Enjoy the snarky commentary.

And it was drying so fast and streaky. Finally after painting and sanding and painting and sanding I finally rolled on with a roller. I got much better results with that, but still a bit splotchy. And went through an entire can of paint for one piece! Ugh! But I decided to keep that piece and I’m good with it. Lol!
