A Quickie Sideboard Transformation (because I didn’t take many pix!)

July 13, 2018 by christen | 8 Comments

So, yes, that was my update yesterday that you may have seen about moving in the direction that I feel and honoring that. However, I did a few projects over the weekend that I wanted to share. If you are not following me on Instagram, hop on as I tend to share there first. Look up “blueeggbrownnest”.

Here’s a before and after of my sideboard….

I used Old White, Clear Wax and NO distressing.

The room is so much lighter! Happy.

    I love the look; it’s so bright and joyful, and everything goes with it! I just need the courage to transform the livingroom with the chalkpaint!

    That sideboard turned out so pretty! I have used Old White recently on a few dining room pieces but I went crazy with the distressing. Love the clean look of this piece without the distressing. Thanks for the inspiration!

    What a difference! The result is so tasteful and inspirational. This makeover has finally provided me with the confidence I needed to give my dated mahogany furniture a new lease of life. Thank you.

    Hi. I see that you don’t update your site too often. I know that writing content is boring and
    time consuming. But did you know that there is a tool that allows you to create new posts using existing content (from article directories
    or other websites from your niche)? And it does it very well.
    The new articles are high quality and pass the copyscape test.
    You should try miftolo’s tools
