chalk painted: MID-CENTURY MODERN NIGHTSTAND

One look at the knob & feet and I knew I had to have her! $10 made her more than worth the price!

She's now one of my treasured pieces that I use as my nightstand.

color recipe + product list 

• Body
  • 2 coats of Slick Stick waiting 2 hours in-between coats. Initially I tried to get away with skipping this step but she bled right through the white paint. I *highly* recommend using a primer when using white paint. 
  • I had Rustoleum Chalk Paint in White from a previous project and applied 2-3 coats. 
• Top
  • I sanded the top down to raw wood using an orbital sander. 
  • I used Jacobean stain for the top. 
• I sealed both pieces with Minwax Polycrylic Sealer.
