    I have painted several pieces of my furniture (using my favorite, Dixie Belle Paint). I painted three bedroom dressers, two end tables, a dining server and my kitchen cabinets. It has saved me a lot of money over purchasing new pieces. What I lack is the vision to do embellishments to my pieces.

  • @sandyvillanueva4679
    @sandyvillanueva4679 2 года назад +1

    I have practiced on small things like wooden shelves, picture frames, small chairs just to get the feel of how everything works. I did a small cabinet with a whitewash top and chalk white for the rest of it. It wasn’t Dixie Belle, but it was expensive. Didn’t care for the coverage, it took three coats to cover the wood. I have a whole house full of out dated furniture, I’m excited to keep going! Thanks Christina!

    I painted some basic furniture many years ago, but definitely have lots of things now that I want to update. I’m dismayed to realize how much of our items aren’t real wood, so seeing how to prep particle board is super helpful. Great video! I’ve subscribed to both your channel and Dixie Belle’s, whose products I haven’t had the chance to try yet but whatnot soon. Thanks!

Now I have about 10 pieces of my own I want to paint for me. I haven't tried this kind of paint yet & don't know where to start, so YES I am entering to win with Dixie Bell. I'm now older & disabled due to a disease, so need something like this amazingly beautiful & easier to use paint for my antique pieces I want to redo for my home!! This would be such a true blessing to win. I also now live on a fixed income due to permanent disability, so I can't afford to buy a bunch of "New & different paints!!
