My sis-in-law made me this shelf about 8 yrs ago and I painted it barn red… because that’s what I was into back then… I still kinda love it, but for outside… on a barn! lol!
I lost the knobs long ago!!
Anyway.. I Sanded her up, and spray painted WHITE….
Then Spray Painted BLACK
Click HERE to see me CORRECTLY spray paint the shelf black… and YES, there IS a correct way to use spray paint! who new?!
After those quick coats of paint, I mixed up a beautiful shade of blue with paints I already had, and brushed it on, not being super careful…
I waited 30 min, then I started sanding to get all those different shades of paint to come thru. Use as many colors as you want!! I wish I would have done a pretty pink in there somewhere!
To add some final touches I added stenciling and HOME-MADE knobs! Click HERE for tutorial on how to make your own knobs.
