  • Welcome to Flip It Furniture! In today’s video we take an outdated 9 drawer French Provincial dresser and update it using mostly Dixie Belle Paint Company Chalk Mineral Paint. I’m going to use a blending technique on the base using a light blue color and dark blue. Then finish off the look with a whitewash!

    I have anxiety painting on your beautiful floor with no drop cloth! LOL You are very talented girl! Love it!

      Thank you!! 🤣🤣 I’ve heard that a few times now but it’s okay lol Chalk paint comes off easily with soap and water. It’s when I’m using oil based primers I need a dropcloth😬I’ve learned my lesson priming🤦‍♀️

    This is probably the most beautiful flip I have ever seen. I have a dining room table and hutch that I'm thinking about doing like this. Remodeled my living room and dining room last year and the colors of blue, beige and white. If I could pull this technique off I think it would look beautiful. You did an outstanding job I love watching your videos ❣️

    I love this! I have a full set of this in what I believe is the medium cherry stain finish. My parents bought it for me when I was one, just before my sister was born. It is by Henredon Drexel. I also inherited from my mother in law a white desk that matches it in every way, but color. I have been planning on painting it a pretty blue, but wanted some sort of blending, but not in a crazy sort of way.
    Now before anyone gets excited about me painting a 60 yo real wood bedroom set, it has survived 2 girls (my sister & I shared a room) and that means nail polish spills, nail polish remover spills, makeup, hairspray, Clairol Kindness 20 that you put water in to steam the rollers, etc. Painting it would be a kindness to re-beautify to be used & enjoyed for at least another 60 years. :D Beautiful job on the dresser!

    • @FlipItFurniture
      @FlipItFurniture  3 года назад +9

      Wow that’s just great! I painted one of those dressers a few months ago. It’s by far the nicest piece I have painted. They are so special when they are real wood. And I wouldn’t worry about painting it because if you ever change your mind or if you pass it on someday and they want it natural they can always strip it and stain. Every time I start feeling guilty about painting a piece I think it’s OK because Paint is not permanent 😊

      If it’s oil-based, I will lay something down now. I’ve learned the hard way🤦‍♀️But water-based usually cleans up easily with a damp cloth.

But didn't want to to waste expensive transfers til I was sure I could do it justice with painting!

    Don’t mix vertical and horizontal strokes when blending. Every time you switch, you essentially start over. Back and forth with a clean brush where the colors meet is easiest. Don’t go fully into either color until it’s blended. Half the brush in color one, the other half in color 2, go back and forth, move up and down about 50% while doing horizontal strokes. It’s fast and easy

    • @elizabethjudy6340
      @elizabethjudy6340 2 года назад

      Not with chalk paint. The technique is completely different! In fact, you need to brush in all directions.

      @@FlipItFurniture your blending technique is good. (I know you were speeding up the playback) but nonetheless maybe if you slowed down and took your time a bit more ... you look like you're a quick worker. When you slow down you can be a little more deliberate and mindful about the placement of your colors and where the blended edges fall. Makes it easier to get a consistent pattern. But really beautiful!

    Your explanations and teaching techniques are superior to most videos I have seen. You covered every detail and explained everything so thoroughly. I love that you show your products and your color choices &tell how long to wait for it to dry, how to patch up wood, how to blend & shade. The white washing on top is beautiful. I am looking for your separate video on white washing & have not found it. Please repost. Your techniques are above & beyond. And I am a retired teacher. A+ for you!! 👏
