I chose a pale blue grey by CIL called 'Reflecting Pool'. It turned out lighter than I thought but I'm still very happy with it. After much sanding priming, painting and finishing - here's the after shots!

Stay tuned for pics of the completed Vintage Blue Bedside Table to come very soon...
Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteQuick question, what kind of paint brush did you use? I also occupied my weekend with some furniture painting but I'm so clueless about the different kinds of brushes...I ended up using whatever was in the garage and I swear, it took me forever to paint a tiny table!
i love the gold frame. so elegant!

Hi Dolores!
ReplyDeleteI used a paint brush that I've had forever, it's one I spent a bit of money on ($20ish if I recall) and it's a natural hair brush designed for water-based paint. For the most part I use small foam rollers to do my pieces, and use the brush mainly for corners. It does take a while as you build up practice though!
