Painting Furniture – Great Tips

Believe it or not, I haven’t painted a lot of furniture. I’ve done a few pieces over the years, but I’m gearing up to do a lot more, now that I’ll have a workshop.

I’ve found a ton of blogs who refinish furniture, so I thought I’d take some tips from a couple of my favorites.

Cindy @ My Romantic Home paints some awesome pieces. She posted some great tips for painting furniture here. You can also see some of her great furniture too.

But take a minute to browse the comments on this post. It’s full of great questions and answers.

Gotta love bloggers. Always so helpful!

My second go-to blog for furniture is Miss Mustard Seed. You probably already know all about her. If not, please, please check her out.

Not only does she paint the most amazing furniture, she also gives the most amazing tips and tutorials.

I found this post on sealing furniture.

I gotta tell ya, all I ever did was apply a couple of coats of polyurethane.

Not after reading this.

She tells you about four different products for topcoating furniture, how to use them and what you can use them for.

Very, very cool stuff.

If you’re into painting furniture.

Which, I guess I am, now.

Which blogs are your favorites for tips and ideas?
