  • Christina Muscari of Pretty Distressed takes a nightstand from shabby chic to just chic by removing decorative trim, adding hairpin legs and painting a smooth finish with chalk paint. This nightstand is sealed with a water based clear coat perfect for an elegant girl's bedroom. Thanks to these ladies for the inspiration:

    Finally someone doing the work without telling me their husband did the cutting their husband did this their husband did that. I am a widow I don’t have a husband and I’m always discouraged when I see a project and some of the steps are done by the husband. Thank you so much. I have never made a comment on any you to pieces but you inspired me and gave me hope

    • @ChristinaMuscari

      Oh DeeDee. I'm so sorry for the loss of your husband. I do rely on mine a lot for help with the power tools, but I'm trying to get him to teach me so I can teach you. I have a lot of single mamas in my life, so I never want anyone to feel they need a husband to do my projects. Thank you for watching. ❤️

      I have a husband and I can’t trust him to screw in a lightbulb! I watched videos, bought all sorts of power tools and picked a bunch of little projects like boxes, planters...etc. I messed up ALOT but learned in the process. Just do it and have fun!

    This video inspired me to refinish a dresser I got on market place. Finally found one that fit in our room but it was dated. My husband cut off the bottom like you did and we ordered some decorative wooden legs 🦵 and it turned out beautifully. I did another piece and gave it a more modern leg and its amazing how paint and new legs can update your furniture. Thank you very much.

    I just finished my second project-a 25 year-old oak colored dresser which was meant for a baby/young child’s room (one of the 2 dressers you can attach a changing table to). Anyway, we separated the 2 dressers-one we keep in our daughter’s bedroom (for when she visits) and the second one in the guest bedroom. I painted the one in our daughter’s room “Fluff” by Dixie Belle but primed it first with Slick Stick. I wish I would have watched this video first to know that sanding between primers is okay to do. I applied 2 layers of primer and 3 layers of Fluff, only sanding between paint layers. When I tackle the next dresser, I’ll definitely sane between primer layers! Thank you! (And I love your ‘I just want to drink coffee and paint furniture’ tee-shirt!)
