Makeover Night Stands

I wanted to share with you a custom paint job and I have to say it was so much fun to change up these dull, dark brown night stands. I used two of Le Craie Maison Blanche colors, Franciscan Grey and Sliver Mink. These colors complement each other beautifully. I didn't take a before picture, but trust me when I say these were boring dark brown pieces.

The Sliver Mink I added onto the drawers and the Franciscan Grey to the top, sides and bottom of this lovely piece.

I distressed the drawers and every groove on these pieces. 

I didn't replace the handles and once I painted them I gave them a light distress. 

Some more distress goodness

I don't have a favorite paint brand and I chose a paint based on the color. I have used ASCP, Le Craie Maison Blanche, and homemade chalk paint. I love them all and I recommended any of these wonderful brands. However I also plan on using Miss Mustard Seed, Sweet Pickin milk paints, and American Paint Company. But these products are not available to me locally and I would have to order them online. I am a very visual person and I'm not sure about the other colors. Seeing a color on the internet can be a hit or miss and this is why I have not purchased any of these brands. If you have used any of these brands and have a favorite color please leave me a comment below. I do know Miss Mustard seed's and Le Craie Maison Blanche wax are amazing. They are soft and buttery and leaves your pieces feeling smooth.
