Hi and welcome!

This is our first project, a nice vintage chest of drawers, painted off white and lightly distressed then waxed to finish it off.

  2. This is so cute! You do an amazing job!! I love, love, love the blue and white dresser above! I want it! What kind of wax do you use? Do you apply with a rag or brush? If you don't mind me asking.

  3. Hi, thanks for your kind comments! I used Briwax paste wax applied with a rag, I think I gave these pieces three coats, I didn't realise what a nice finish wax gave over paint 'till I tried it!

  4. I always love white color and you made with white color as well. Thanks for this white color. The first picture is expressing your ideas regarding painting furniture very well. Well done!
