Easy Customizable forest landscape painted furniture with stencils
Transform plain furniture into an enchanting forest scene statement piece using stencils!
Tools:
Supplies:
Instructions:
- Remove dresser drawers, remove knobs, and sand the finish until you reach bare wood.
- Paint the outside of the dresser without drawers in a deep tone. I used Cast Iron.
- Replace the bottom two drawers without knobs.
- Cut a piece of vinyl the size of one of the drawers and install it across the top of the 2nd drawer from the bottom.
- Draw a horizon landscape along the vinyl, cut along the line with a knife, then remove the bottom section.
- Stencil a mid-tone along the cut line, then paint the rest and the bottom drawer with the same colour. I used Chestnut Mare by Fusion Mineral Paint.
- Carefully remove the landscape stencil and save it for the next step after the paint is dry.
- Replace the landscape stencil on the bottom drawer, but move it to the side so both horizons differ. Rip the stencil to continue the image.
- Stencil, then paint the bottom drawer in your darker colour. I used Cast Iron by Fusion Mineral Paint.
- With a tree stencil, align the trees joining them to the lighter landscape, then stencil them in, working around your future statement tree. I used Christmas Trees.
- Stencil in a statement tree that is much larger than the rest, joining it to the lower darker landscape. I used Christmas Tree Seedling. Then stencil smaller trees along that landscape around it. Make the smaller trees taller than the other landscape since these trees are 'closer' to you.
- Paint knobs with one or two of the dresser tones, or leave them natural wood.
- Enjoy your new furniture statement piece, forest landscape style!
