No Primer, No Topcoat - Easy Furniture Makeover | Painting Nightstands For My Sister in LA

In today's video I will be teaching you how I painted a pair of nightstands for my sister in LA! This nightstand makeover was super easy thanks to Dixie Belle Silk All-In-One paint! This paint has a built-in stain blocking primer and topcoat so this makeover did not require primer or topcoat! This is super easy and beginner-friendly...Anyone can do it!

Did you make it to the bloopers at the end??? Let me know which one was your favorite!

[@RickyWilder]

The bleeps always do it for me 🤬🤣

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Haha same!

[@zonyasvintage7859]

Great choice to go white. Even though it’s an arduous process…. And you’re so right that the right white makes a big difference. Great work

[@Csharpflat5]

Look great sis

[@mermaidtales3639]

Hahaha lmao I live for the bloopers! It makes me feel I’m not alone in my furniture flipping swearing and silliness 😂 and the night stands came out fresh and beautiful!

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

I'm so glad you enjoy them. I love making them.
Thank you so much ❤

[@RickyWilder]

I love how much they liven up the whole room! White and gold is always a classy choice. Nicely done, Chic 🔨🎨👩🏻‍🎨

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you so much, Ricky! I totally agree!

[@abmoralesrosado]

Hard to believe they were once so dark! Beautiful work!

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Totally! Thank you so much!

[@tericrappel4548]

This pair of tables turned out really nice. I think I would like to use this color

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you! Definitely recommend it!

[@jrbaskind]

The night stands look so good painted white!

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you!

[@brittanywilder344]

It’s the puppy crying in the background for me 🥲😂

[@pou618]

You know, I'm lying here with two dogs on me wondering which one was whining.

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Hahahahahahahah

[@brittanywilder344]

Nice work! Love the final product 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you so much! :)

[@bluecurlygirl]

Fabulous job. Love how they turned out. They're beautiful nighstands.

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you so much, Emer.

[@CopperCactusDIY]

That's one lucky sister you have! You're not lying, white is the toughest for coverage. But you did it, these are beautiful! Bloopers are the realness I love! I'm guessing the silent side eye was pointed at either birds or neighbors? (That's what my side eye is always for lol)

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

I honestly hate doing white, but it always turns out pretty. I'm glad you liked the bloopers haha. Yes, my neighbors always decide to use their leaf blower or lawnmower every time I sit down to film 😝

[@doddnejadfard3251]

That’s a nice classic piece

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you so much!

Hi Holly, It still amazes me how a little paint can totally transform a piece of furniture. We posted a video on a similar set of nightstands this week. So fun to see how different yours look. Great job. They are beautiful! - Sherry

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Yes, the power of paint is amazing! I am excited to see what you did! I will watch your video tonight!!

Beautiful Holly!!! Love the white

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thanks so much, Sarah ❤

[@KarenSmith-bc7nd]

I use old playing cards to fill holes with wood filler. Then I toss them. My in-laws gave me boxes of them. I use them for many things. 😊

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Great idea!

[@karonwostenholme6533]

Looks great. X

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you, Kathleen!

[@diannesimmons4258]

Very nice

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thanks!

[@49rsfam64]

Nice. Is the brush that good as to not have brush marks? Have been wanting to buy one and I think I'm convinced.

[@divinelight8573]

Nice job

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thanks!

[@janetslicer3637]

The night stands turned out lovely! I want to try a natural wood stain on a dresser and not paint. I am too scared to start!

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Thank you!
You just gotta jump in! If you have any questions, I would be more than happy to help.

[@marien.m2704]

How much paint did you use for both night stands and 4 lasers each? was 1 (16oz) enough?

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

I think I did 4 1/2 coats, but I can't recall preciesly. I used at least 16oz for sure, maybe more.

[@pou618]

Could you have gotten away with fewer coats had you used a primer first?

[@ChicAntiquebyHolly]

Not in my experience, no. For white I typically will do 2 coats of primer first, and then paint. In that scenario I usually end up needing to do 2 coats of paint, so the work is essentially the same since this paint has a built-in primer.
