So I grabbed this spindle that was one of a pair I purchased at an estate sale: I loved the petite size of this magazine rack and the simple lines, but when I got it home I knew I wanted to change it up a bit to add a little more character to it. Krylon isn’t my first choice for spray paint, but they do have some beautiful colors, and this came out rather nicely.Īnd did you notice something different about the handle?
#Xstand makeover update
This is another project that got a quick update using spray paint. I swear there must have been a magazine rack collector that just gave up their prized collection that day at the DAV because there were at least 10 magazine racks on the floor the day I spotted this one! I found this magazine rack at one of my favorite thrift stores for a whole $3: Today I’ve got a great little makeover for y’all. I know Halloween isn’t for everyone, but at least while we still have kiddos at home, we get a big kick out of it, so thanks for letting me share! It is truly a low effort high result kind of project.Hello, lovely Friends! I bet you didn’t think you would hear from me today since I stopped in yesterday to share my Halloween décor. I hope you enjoy this nightstand makeover tutorial. You can add an in-drawer power outlet to convert the drawer into a charging station for your phone and tablet.

Be sure to remove the hardware, it will make your painting job a lot easier. So sanding it slightly gives me peace in mind in terms making sure paint would stick on top. The ones I got had a very glossy poly on top of the wood. Wipe them clean and sand slightly on the surface.I didn’t remember to take a photo before the makeover, so here’s the photo from the seller. To be honest, the before is pretty old looking: high gloss orange red wood tone – not my favorite. With the 40% coupon, I got them around $10 – such a steal! I picked up this chalk paint from my local Michaels store in color Parisian Gray. Besides, most of the nightstands I’m interested online are in a similar tone. Back then I wasn’t not sure how the bedroom color palette will be coming together, but a light neutral color is always a very safe choice. Using chalk paint to transform old looking nightstandīased on my master bedroom moodboard, I had already planned to paint the nightstands a light gray color. So after scoring a pair of matching nightstand on Facebook marketplace, I was ready to give them a makeover! I have watched tons of old furniture refinishing tutorials on youtube and has been eager to try it for quite a long time. My bed is only $700 from Pottery Barn (I scored it at half of the price as floor sample and with an additional 20% off). Ouch! As much as I love pretty and functional nightstand, I don’t want to spend over a thousand dollars on them. Most of them are around $500 each, some are even $1000 each. But then the problem came: all the nightstands I found at online marketplaces are very expensive. After we bought our first house, I know I want to have a nice bedroom with matching nightstands.
All you need is some old nightstand you’ve found in a thrift store and a can of chalk paint! The whole refinishing process took me less than 2 hours.Īs a designer by trade, our not-matching nightstand in our past rental place was driving me crazy. Makeover a pair of nightstands can be very easy. It doesn’t have to be a nightstand: with less than $10 and two hours, you can transfer any old-looking furniture into something pinterest worthy!
