What You Will Need

Instructions

  • Thoroughly clean the furniture.
  • Remove the hardware and repaint the entire piece. You may need two coats of chalk paint. Let each coat dry thoroughly.
  • Add a coat of clear wax. Let dry.
  • Add the stencil from Royal Design Studio to the center of each door and use stencil brushes for the painting.
  • After the paint in the stenciled area was dry, rub on some clear Annie Sloan wax and rub it on to make it look more vintage.
  • Add the new hardware to the chalk paint cabinet.
  • Create the vintage-looking decoration for inside the hutch and add it.
