ANTIQUE NIGHTSTAND MAKEOVERS

Today I want to show you the nightstands we found and fixed up to suit the space. I picked both of them up at antique stores, for actually really good deals.

Minus the drawers – and I already had paint on the top when I remembered the before picture. But you get the idea, right? It has lovely curved legs and great storage for all my husbands crap.

I discovered Rust-oleum’s new chalk paint line at my local paint store and the price was great so I snagged it up.

I sanded the piece lightly before I applied the paint. But I thought this chalk paint went on very smoothly and only took 2 coats for full coverage.

I’ve kept the decor on top very minimal, and just pretty. This is my husbands nightstand so he plugs his phone on there at night and the rest of his reading material goes in the drawers.

Next up, I found this already painted piece for just 35 dollars.

While I usually like that aqua color, it wasn’t suited for this neutral/serene space. So after a bit of sanding, I applied the same Linen color paint to the piece.
