Tips on choosing colors to blend and a complete furniture makeover!

- Опубліковано 14 вер 2021
- Today I am giving an old French provincial dresser a furniture makeover. I bought this at the thrift store for $40. I removed the latex paint with citrisrtip before recording the video. I'm sharing a few furniture flipping tips and tricks for when you're feeling stuck in a creative rut. I will be using Dixie belle paint to create an Electric blue hue to make these colors POP! I hope you enjoy this furniture flip! ❤️

I almost fell like I could attempt the blending after your tutorial. Thank you.
That’s great!💙
I completely agree about the first coat! It’s where I do all the damage and then use the second coat to make magic. This turned out beautifully - and that hardware makes me want to do a whole piece in a deep blue and gold combo.
Yes, it's the messy experimental coat. That sounds gorgeous! I love blue and gold er well gold and every color 😂
I love the peacock. It made a wonderful difference. It’s just beautiful.
What a BEAUTIFUL blend!
Thanks Holly!
Gorgeous color combo and blending! Just wish more furniture flippers would change out the hardware.
WOW, this is spectacular, it glows.
It does GLOW!!💙
Im rewatching all of your videos for inspiration and tutorials ... this is one of my favorites and im going to definitely try it one day!! 😊
An awesome vintage dresser, I love the color and I do say it's my favorite.

Lovely colors worked together. Thank you for the instructions.
Thank you Leah!
So pretty Amy. Your blending gets better & better. It's fun watching you discover new color combinations. Even the curves of the dresser accentuate the colors. My mom let us paint our furniture when we were teens. Mine was blue shell & green drawers! 🌷🌷
Thank you! I love that💙 my daughter is about to paint her nightstand. She's been deciding colors for the last week😂❤️
@@FlipItFurniture that's awesome! Your workshop must be like a candy shop with all your supplies! Bravo to you for helping her believe that girls can do anything! Have fun!
Wow -- you really did a fantastic job on that dresser. Truly fabulous🏆😊
Thank you Donna!😊
So pretty 😍💗 you did a terrific job. Thanks for sharing the details.
It’s stunning! I think I like this blending technique better than others, but I would never have thought to do it this way! Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Thank you for watching!
Antebellum blue is my favorite color by Dixie Belle! Never thought to combine it with it the navy! I just love this look!
I love Antebellum too!!💙
Love, love the colors!
Just beautiful.. That's all I need to say about it
Thank you!
Absolutely stunning and TOTALLY inspiring!!!!
Thank you!
This is gorgeous…you make it look so easy. You’re an artiste❤️
Thank you!
Gorgeous !!
Looks fantastic it's a statement piece 💜🕉
Thank you!
Gorgeous!
So gorgeous, Amy!! I love it so. so. so. much.
Thank you Erica💙
Thanks for sharing your process of creativity. I haven't painted my first piece yet. So watching you go through that process gave me the courage to get started. I have about 8 different pieces in my home or my children's home that I'd like to paint, and I've tried to decide what to do with each piece. It's confusing because furniture can look great with all sorts of different colors and types of paints. Now I understand what I can do a color and if I don't like it, it's so easy to change color after the first coat. Thanks, that really helped a lot! I love the way your blending made that dresser stand out and shine! Beautiful!
Thank you so much!! I'm happy you liked it. I spoke with an old friend who is taking on her first project, and I told her the same thing. If you make a mistake, it's okay. It's paint. You can always paint over it🎨🖌️❤️ good luck on your furniture painting journey!
Beautiful work 👍🏼
Thank you!
Stunning

My favorite part of Wednesday!!! Amy that’s my favourite! I love those colours. Funnily enough I’m editing next weeks piece and it’s Antebellum Blue not blended like yours tho 😉
Anyway loved it
Thanks! Yeah, that blue is one my favorites. It's close to a teal. It's just so different. I can't wait to see your project😁 I just ordered that nailer with your link❤️woohoo!
@@FlipItFurniture oh wow. That’s awesome. Thanks 😊
Yeah it’s pretty plain no blending but I did sell it already so that’s good 😆
WOW!!! Fabulous!! Antebellum blue is one of my faves!! Sometime there look like there a hint of purple..but that could be my phone. Your like me I have DB colors that havent been used! 🥰🤗
Haha yes🎨🖌️
It's not your phone! This piece is magic😂 It looks completely different all day. From sun up to sundown, it seems to change with the light!
Beautifull
Love this color. The In the Navy, Peacock, and Antebellum blend great together. Thanks for a great video !!
You really are a whiz with these transformations. I'm always impressed and inspired.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful results with the blending, I really love the way you blend the 3 colors haven't seen anyone do it better. Would love to try some time. Amazing job!
Another beauty !
Thank you!
Beautifull piece :-)
This turned out to be really stunning. Wow, love it.
Thank you!
Regal,,,, beautiful piece
This is just fabulous. I love how the colours blend. Well done and thank you for sharing.
Thank you!
This is my favorite thing you have ever done! A true work of art.
Thank you so much!💙
It is beautiful. I don’t think I have an artistic eye for blending pains as you did here. Wish I did. I like watching your videos.
Thank you!
I am in love with this piece! Beautiful job once again!!
Thank you!
@@FlipItFurniture ❤
Truly a work of art! Just beautiful! You are so talented. I loved seeing/hearing your thought process. Very impressive
Thank you Lori!
She made that look really pretty and it looks really expensive.
I have a dresser that I would like to try this on . I’ve never done this before. Can you please provide a list of items that I would need , including brand of paint and brushes. I totally love this.
“Beautiful”
Yesssssss
Великолепно!!!
I look forward to all your videos !! Your blending is awesome. I still have trouble 🙁. Question! What’s the difference between GatorHide and Top Coat ?
Thank you! Keep at it. I had trouble too, but I just kept practicing and kept at it.
Gator hide is thicker, so you would want to use it for tabletops or any place that gets a lot of use. Topcoat is a finish and sealer. It’s a seal for your paint. I apply at least two coats of sealer and it provides excellent protection. The topcoat is thinner. You could also use it on a tabletop but if you’re getting a lot of use, you might want to go with the thicker option, which would be gatorhide. They both work great. If you’re just beginning though, I would stick with topcoat for a while as Gatorade can be tricky and isn’t always necessary.
Absolutely beautiful. Do you paint the back of your pieces too or do anything back there?
Thank you! If the piece is in bad condition or has odors, I will shellac the back and then paint it, but for the most part, if the backboard is in good condition, I will leave it as is.

How long do you have to wait after wax to put clothes in there? Or does it even effect the clothes?
did you say that you removed all the latex paint before you applied slick stick?
Yes!
Beautiful!
Stunning
It’s beautiful!
