A new challenge From Something Old Furniture Renewal5563627
My daughter and i also recently started our dream business of collecting and renewing furniture with the awesome medium of paint. Even as we were going through the idea of painting furniture, we discovered paint and still have never looked back! What a pleasure to own found and ventured in to the arena of painted furniture. So far as could, Annie Sloan developed this specialty paint in her home country of England and launched it over there in 1990. Recently it has taken America by storm and the whole community of creative furniture painters are in awe!
Important so wonderful to do business with is that despite other paint, it is possible to paint directly onto furniture pieces and never have to strip or prime it give you. It is going on easily, dries quickly and even more importantly, sand off magnificently in areas where you need to produce the "distressed" look.
We're looking towards applying this medium and going through the probability of how you can make new pieces of art from unwanted blah, brown home furnishings.
Traditional Milk Paint is yet another paint medium that we're beginning to explore with, with a texture and finished that could create a traditional, vintage look.
We love to vintage and antique furniture, or a piece of writing of furniture that people can paint and present that distinguished older or distressed look.
I've painted many furniture pieces over my life here we are at use in home, however, not way too long ago, Karla and i also chose to do it on a full-time basis. After recently renewing an old dresser on her bedroom, directly in our back yard, the thought to get this done like a business, dawned for us.
Some people may not like the idea of painted antique furniture, though the pieces we prefer to renew are the one that people no longer find attractive. Those who give us difficult of how we could help it become beautiful and appealing yet again. People who might end up in the land fill, prematurely.
So essentially, we're recycling, renewing, re-purposing and enhancing the planet a little bit within the same time!
