Well I am overall happy with the results of this piece. I am going to be honest. White has really started to grow on me. I have always been into dark colors. But I am glad I took the leap, and gave this clean color a chance. I don’t think I will be going back anytime soon. Now I just need to pick a color for my walls. The mustard is getting old to me. We have had it since we built the house. TIME TO CHANGE IT!
Breakdown: EASY!
Glossy White Spray Paint
Salt (to clean metal)
Apple Cider Vinegar (to clean metal)
oh and primer. I didn’t use any poly this time. The water based was sickly costly, so I decided it is good just the way it is for now.
Hope you like it.
XOXOX,
TamStyles

thanks Kay...my old blogger friend from Canada! (smiles and hugs)...I didnt actually. I gently rubbed them with the mixture and BAMMM> I think its the lighting to be honest because I waited till the almost dark of day chile to take pictures.
Great tip on cleaning the metal! I'll use that :)
Oh a new paint color, great idea since your have your new bed and dresser....are you leaning toward grey? Just thinking.
I like mix of dark/white and painted furniture it helps balance the large dark pieces. And is so eye pleaseing :)
I have to admit, it looks great. I'll have to reveal mine soon, but I'm working a project that has all my attention at the moment. Like always. I'll have to use the cleaning tip for the hardware.
that came out great! i love to paint things over, face lift them, and i adore paint over stains. paint is happier to me for some reason :) really came out fab!
Turned out great I love it!
I love it in white! I learned the hard way about not using poly, at least on the top, of a piece that will serve as a usable surface. Hopefully this will fare better than my pieces did without poly :)
Wow, it looks great, just need to find that one little corner piece and it will be perfect. Hey even without it, it looks great. How about you fly up here and get to work on the furniture in my house, lol.
Peace, Love and Chocolate

oh WOW! you are GOOD girl! i loooove that neutral grey!
This looks very nice... I actually thought of you the other day while at Goodwill I found a dresser just like the one you did for your daughters room... It was priced at $99 (too much in my opinion) i'm so tempted though cause I know its potetial after seeing what you did..
you are too funny! Girl got her a campaign, nice addition...
I love these makeovers. I'm inspired!
I am oh so jealous! It looks great!
Wow, it turned out awesome! And I love the little peek at the rug. I know what you mean about color "getting old" At least you have some color on your walls. Mine are a builder's beige that photographs pink. YIKES!
I love it! Looks great in your bedroom!
oh okay - i'll definitely be using that solution to clean hardware should i ever need to :)
(your friendly canadian commenter ;)
you can take some chrome paint and paint the corner and it will look like the rest...I've tried it and it works.
It's great!
