Transforming boring & basic WALMART TABLE with 3D STENCIL & NEW FAVORITE paint-wash!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

☀️🎨🏖️ ~ Make sure you stay to the end for a hint of something COMING SOON! ~ ☀️🎨🏖️
I needed a "just right" table/desk for a certain space...and luckily found this simple little used Walmart console on the Marketplace for $20! Come along with me as I try out a 3D FIBER PASTE STENCIL, discover a NEW FAVORITE PAINT-WASH that creates a milk chocolate look, experiment with a GOLD LEAF TECHNIQUE, and hopefully whip up the perfect batch of porridge...er, table/desk...🐻🐻🐻🥣🪑🛏️

    Wow, talk about a low class duckling to high class swan. The amount of courage and creativity in this piece might be illegal. And, this was done while preparing for a major role in a theater production plus the “minor” responsibility of running the household as mother for a family of five! Makes me tired to just tip the hat to this wonderful accomplishment.

    How refreshing to watch your creative process. If we do the same old techniques, we don’t grow. It gives me more confidence to actually try something instead of fearing that I won’t do it “right!” When it comes to artistic endeavors, there is no such a thing as “right!” Though I was not a fan of the gold, it is refreshing to see someone flirting with new techniques! ❤️ I love your entertaining videos including your “acting” parts. I learned a bunch. Love the look you achieved. The legs are so pretty. I remember an artist once speaking about her furniture as coming with a personality that we have the opportunity to draw forth and embellish. She even named her pieces. What is this beauty’s name? I vote for Matilda!

    Your piece looked "happy" in the end. They seem to smile at their new look. I've done the stencil technique on furniture before, but use "wall joint compound" and it works great. Not sure how it would hold up compared to the stuff you used and someone handling more roughly than I do, but I love using that. Love the legs and that wallpaper you found - both looked so uplifting. Thanks again for inspiration.
