Pin4.6kFacebook5Share1 Sometimes we need a little inspiration from others. It can come from other artists or from nature, from a painting, or even an article of clothing you see. Everything around us inspires us whether we realize it or not. For our most recent piece, I actually took inspiration from another artist. It all started when we challenged the people in our Create and Connect Interactive Membership Group to complete a certain finish on furniture during the month of October. We challenged the group to a blended paint technique since it’s something they all report struggling with. Since we challenged them to step outside their comfort zone and try something new, I thought it only fair to allow them to challenge me as well. After all, we all need to push ourselves to try new things. Otherwise, how do we grow as an artist? Since I have a board full of beautiful furniture inspiration on Pinterest (you can check it out here ), I invited our group members to visit my board and pick any piece from it that they wanted to challenge me to recreate. Like a good artist, I told them I reserved the right to fail miserably. Lol. Here’s the inspiration piece they picked and challenged me to do. It’s a beautiful antique dresser by Dare To Be Vintage. It was a perfect pick because the piece is very similar in style to my piece that I chose for the challenge. Now all I had to do was decide how to recreate it. Luckily, I had just ordered some beautiful fall inspired colors from Dixie Belle Paint Company so I had everything I needed on hand to start painting. Since my hubby had already prepped the piece for paint, I was ready to get started as soon as they picked my challenge. (Prep: As usual, we started by sanding the piece down and cleaning to remove all dust, debris and oils from the finish. Luckily, this piece was in great shape so it didn’t require any repairs. Once it was thoroughly cleaned, we primed it using Bin Zinsser to ensure good adhesion of our paint product and to guarantee a quality, long lasting finish.) Here’s what it looked like in 2 coats of primer. For my colors… are you ready for this? I chose Collard Greens, Sawmill Gravy, Apricot, Flamingo, Colonel Mustard, Terracotta, Mud Puddle, French Linen, and Honky Tonk Red. I also needed a little bit darker brown that I didn’t have available from DB so I used my Wise Owl Chalk Synthesis Paint in Chocolate. I think this is the most colors I have ever used on one piece. 10 colors should be intimidating but it wasn’t. It was inspiring and freeing to just let go and paint. Get your Dixie Belle paint here through our affiliate link https://dixiebellepaint.com?aff=452 There was no rhyme or reason to my technique. I literally just randomly applied the different colors of paint all over the dresser. I will say, when attempting to do a finish in a layered technique, you do need to have a little patience as you will need to apply paint, let it dry and then come back to it later with different colors (to layer them). This is sometimes hard for me because while I’m working, I want to keep adding and just finish the area I’m working on but you can’t as this will cause your colors to blend if they are still wet. You must wait on them to dry for a layered look that shows all your colors. Now I did blend in some areas as well to get the colors I wanted. Here’s what it looked like as I went. Once I was done with the painting portion, I lightly sanded the piece to smooth it. I used a 400 grit sand paper for this. Remember… when sanding a piece that has texture, either from a texture medium or from your layering technique, you don’t want to sand a lot and you want to use a high grit sand paper to ensure you don’t remove all that texture you just created. Next, I sealed the piece in wax to create a soft, buttery smooth finish. I applied this using my 2″ palm brush from Wise Owl. It’s my favorite for wax application. You can order it here on our website. https://rehab2fabdesigns.com/product/cling-on-paint-brushes/ For the top, I decided to darken the existing color slightly. The Mirror and feet on this piece were a little bit darker than the top, likely from fading over time. Because it was in good shape, we just sanded it down slightly and stained over the existing stain with Dixie Belle No Pain Gel Stain in Walnut. It matched the mirror and feet beautifully and gave the overall look a little more warmth and richness. I also applied the Walnut stain inside the drawers to freshen them up where they had faded over time. That’s it. All done. Here’s what she looks like now.

Pin7.6kFacebook2Share1 So you painted your furniture. You even like the way it turned out. But it seems to be missing something. It looks good… but you know it could be better. Time to dress it up. There are multiple products out there that can help with this. From tissue paper to wallpaper, stencils to gold leaf. Your options are many. But today I’m going to talk to you about decor transfers. There are many brands available today for you to choose from. I recently painted an antique armoire in a bright, vibrant color using Dixie Belle Paint products in Flamingo and Fluff. The colors were blended together for a one of a kind finish. The paint finish was very pretty but I wanted to take it to the next level… a little extra if you will. 🙌🏼 In comes decor transfers by Redesign With Prima. I chose a design called Rose Celebration because the colors complimented my paint finish so well. I mean… It’s like they were meant for one another! Decor transfers come in different styles and sizes to fit your needs. This particular design comes in 6 pieces to make the application process easier. It can get a little cumbersome trying to hold and apply one large sheet. The transfer will come with instructions and a little wooden applicator stick to rub the transfer onto your piece of furniture (or whatever you decide to put it on. Hint: it can be applied to multiple surfaces). And speaking of multiples… you can actually use the designs on multiple projects at times. This particular transfer was used on two different pieces of furniture because I cut and applied sections where I saw fit as opposed to applying the whole design. I do this a lot. Once you remove your transfer from the cylinder it comes in, it’s a good idea to lay it out and see which sections go where. You also want to make sure your piece of furniture is ready for the transfer. This means having a smooth, clean surface to apply it to. After you complete your paint finish, you want to make sure you sand it smooth with a 320 or 400 grit sandpaper to remove any lumps and bumps that could cause adhesion problems for your transfer. Don’t forget to dust afterwards. Transfers come in three parts. A clear front, the design itself, and a paper backing. The transfer should be printed on to the clear front. When you’re ready to apply it, line it up on your project of choice and slowly start to peel the paper backing away from the clear front. Again, your design should remain on the clear front. Depending on the size of the piece you’re working with and your confidence level, you can either remove the whole backing at once… or you can peel it back in small sections for more control. Press the clear front with the design to your project. Gently rub/press so it sticks. Try not to remove it once you’ve laid it down as it may stick causing damage when you lift it back up. You can use tape if you’d like to hold the piece in place and prevent moving. Next, use your stick provided by Prima to rub over the clear front. This will cause the design to let lose from the front and be pressed securely onto your project. It takes a good bit of rubbing and you will definitely get an arm workout in. I gently lift the clear front up as I’m rubbing with the stick. You can see if the design is staying on your project or still sticking to the clear front. Keep rubbing if it’s the later. Continue doing this while peeling back the clear front until you’ve rubbed all of the design image off of the clear front and onto your project. You’ve done it! Great job. Now… time to do the other 5 sheets. 😂It’s tedious and a bit time consuming but so worth the effort when you’re able to take a project from drab to dramatic.
