I thought I'd share my latest weekend project. I painted my $75 Craigslist couch! Bethy's sofa on Friday: Creamish with light pink flowers and stains. Bethy's sofa on Saturday: Green. There are tutorials online that are more in depth than mine, so be sure to google this for yourself before trying the fast version I made up. It was 2am and I just wanted to be done! Here is what I used: Latex Semi-gloss paint Fabric/Textile Medium Scented paint additive (Glade French Vanilla) Paint brush I bought the scented additive because first of all, paint smells bad. Second, I bought my couch on Craigslist! I drove all over town and used up a ton of my cell minutes trying to find enough fabric medium. A lot of time and it's not very cheap, but do not skip this step or your sofa will be crunchy. The medium keeps the fabric soft. Each brand has different directions and mine required two 8 oz. bottles per quart of paint.
