I see the pistachio color on the valspar website, but I can’t find it anywhere so it must have a different name.

I want desperately to paint the crib I have but the guy at the paint store told me it was toxic once color was added to the paint?!! I’m super disappointed so any insight you may have would be appreciated!!

We are going to try out the painting/distress look on our pieces of furniture- if you use the distress ink, do you have to use the finish to keep it on, or is it permanent once it dries? Thanks for sharing!

I use an electric sander most of the time, because I'm lazy. I also never sand down to the bare wood…I just rough up whatever finish is on there to get the new paint to stick.

Does that help?

Do you use anything else to take off the paint? I've wanted to refinish furniture but as you can see I still have the very basics to learn!

After doing some figuring, I bet I have spent around $230 dollars so far. This includes my dresser, the knobs, distress ink, spray paint, paint, 20 yards (give or take a few) of fabric for the bedding and window treatments (which Char is currently working on and will be shown upon completion, can't wait!)The stenciling, my diaper station and corbels, rocking chair cushion, rug, and lamp shade with lamp post, and chandelier. I think I have done pretty good!I still have some decorations to purchase. I will have to add up the grand total just for fun when I am all finished!

Here in the great state of Utah,(and possibly a few other states) the LDS church has a wonderful non-profit thrift store where you can donate used items or buy them for yourself. I have found so many things here, especially furniture. It is comparable to The Salvation Army.

Usually when I buy used furniture it comes with some serious paint jobs. The previous owners had slapped down like 8 coats of paint, so yes, I usually sand them down good to smooth them out, and to get the new coat of paint to stick. The drawers however weren't bad, so I ended up just having to lightly sand to get the paint to stick.

I wonder if I have that kind of patience.
