Print Tutorial
Pin Tutorial
Tools:
Bosch variable speed orbital sander
Supplies:
Algonquin by Fusion Mineral Paint
Coal Black by Fusion Mineral paint
Fusion Stain and Finishing Oil in Cappuccino
Grain Sack Stripe G1L
paint brushes
stencil brush
whisk broom
rags
TSP Alternative by Fusion Mineral Paint
Velour paint roller
Instructions:
Clean the piece with TSP Alternative.
Give the furniture a scuff sand all over or use an orbital sander.
Paint the drawer fronts and the rest of the dresser in Algonquin.
Apply stain to all the painted areas, then remove most starting with a rag while leaving intentional streaks.
Swipe the surfaces with a rough paint brush or whisk to create more woodsy texture.
Allow to dry for several days.
Paint the drawer pulls in Coal Black.
Remove drawers, and stencil a thick grain sack stripe down the center of the dresser.
Insert the drawers, and align stencil to existing stripe to stencil over drawers to match it all up.
