This turned out beautifully! Because I saw the video you made a few months ago using Hampton Olive on a desk, I was inspired to use that same paint on my china cabinet. I have it proudly displayed in my dining room. Thank you for all you teach us😊

@@ChristinaMuscari oh my goodness!! Lol, I didn’t know I won until now! I’m so excited!! I’m new to learning how to navigate CZcams as you can tell. I can’t tell you how thankful I am❤️
I have refinished furniture for years, but this is the year I add paint!
THIS is exactly what I've been looking for, so little furniture I've been finding is real wood!
What a great tutorial! I sold my first piece yesterday using Dixie Belle’s French Linen and gold gilding wax on the handles! The small dresser sold within two hours! I was so excited! I can’t wait to explore more products of Dixie Belle especially their transfers! Keep inspiring Christina!
I have tried to paint furniture before, without much success because I didn't know what I was doing. So now I'm doing the smart thing and watching an expert! Thank you!
Yes! I’ve made over a Lane Chest and my childhood desk. Paint transformations never fail to amaze me.
In the 70's I made 2 nightstands from a waterfall vanity & painted them blue.
Long gone, but they were used & I was pleased.
I have painted several pieces of my furniture (using my favorite, Dixie Belle Paint). I painted three bedroom dressers, two end tables, a dining server and my kitchen cabinets. It has saved me a lot of money over purchasing new pieces. What I lack is the vision to do embellishments to my pieces.
Love this, Shelley.
I'm always about going lighter and brighter, but i have to say that you're dresser turn out awesome. Great job!🤎
I’ve never painted any furniture but eventually I want to redo my dresser and nightstands. Nice to know that MDF furniture can be updated
I just started flipping furniture as a side hustle/hobby! It's a learning curve, but it's so satisfying and fun!
Could never have imagined it would be so classy! Beautiful!
I painted a desk two years ago with wall paint. I’m cringing now. I am gathering supplies to begin chalk painting the correct way. I’ve been buying supplies but no paint yet. Can’t wait to tackle some favorite pieces in my house.
Ive painted wood furniture before and used Dixie Belle. This is what I needed to see for a less expensive piece!
During last year’s lockdown, I painted a bookshelf and my daughters’ bathroom cabinets. It was so satisfying!
I have painted furniture, and decor, and used Dixie Belle! In fact you were the very first furniture painter that I ever watched on CZcams and I’m still watching you today and it’s been close to two years. So thank you very much for all of your instruction and videos just like this.
I have practiced on small things like wooden shelves, picture frames, small chairs just to get the feel of how everything works. I did a small cabinet with a whitewash top and chalk white for the rest of it. It wasn’t Dixie Belle, but it was expensive. Didn’t care for the coverage, it took three coats to cover the wood. I have a whole house full of out dated furniture, I’m excited to keep going! Thanks Christina!
I have not painted a piece of furniture… YET…. However, I have been watching all your videos and going to look for my first project this weekend!!! Thank you for this channel!
I painted my first piece of furniture this week! My daughter wanted her dresser to be painted pink! I've been looking for another way to earn income since being laid off and discovered your channel a few weeks ago.... Thank you so much for your content! I've learned a lot!
I have painted furniture but love to watch you for more creative ideas.
I’ve painted several pieces and my latest is pretty distressed inspired. A beautiful secretary desk!
I've been painting furniture since May 2021, but I am always up for reminder tips!
I painted a jewelry cabinet. I wasn’t crazy about the job I did, but not bad for a beginner. I definitely have learned more since watching your videos.
I have been flipping furniture for about a year and a half now. I have painted several items with the Hampton Olive and I absolutely love it. Silk is a great way to describe this paint. It goes on flawlessly and so smooth. I have learned so much by watching your videos! Keep them coming!
I have painted some really pretty furniture,I have painted more than I thought I did. I went through photos of the evolution of my work and dare I say I’m a little proud. I really do want to try Dixie Belle paint,after watching you use it!!
Painted furniture before. I adore that color. Can’t wait to try silk
I’ve been using Dixie Belle for a few years now painting furniture to resell. I’ve tried others but Dixie Belle is my favorite and my go to paint & products.
I painted a kid’s Jenny Lind rocking chair. The only thing I knew to do was scuff sand. Took 3 coats of white paint and even though it had tons of spindles it turned out pretty good. Can’t wait to try Dixie Belle paints.
I love painting furniture and am becoming a huge fan of dixie belle products!
I painted some basic furniture many years ago, but definitely have lots of things now that I want to update. I’m dismayed to realize how much of our items aren’t real wood, so seeing how to prep particle board is super helpful. Great video! I’ve subscribed to both your channel and Dixie Belle’s, whose products I haven’t had the chance to try yet but whatnot soon. Thanks!
Yes I have painted several pieces with Dixie belle and I am obsessed!
I have painted furniture, walls, trim inside and out, toys, glass, and fabric! My favorite is furniture!
Yes, I have painted furniture before. But LOVE this video tutorial because I'm dealing with a 'not real wood' piece now that has been frustrating. Thank You!!
I love Dixie Belle products. I did my first furniture flip using Dixie Belle. I have seen pieces done with the all in one, but have not used it myself yet. You always do a great job on your furniture. You are a great teacher I especially like when things don’t always go as expected and how you problem solve.
I have never painted or anything to furniture. I’ve been watching a lot of videos on furniture flipping. I’m very excited about it, just haven’t had a chance yet. I look forward to the experience.
I have painted tons of furniture years ago. I’m ready to get back into the flipping game!
I really like your piano makeover with that black on black.
I'm a newbie to furniture flipping and have painted a few pieces, but haven't tried one like this. Thankful for the tips!
Revamping a kitchen hutch now! This was a perfectly timed video. Never used Dixie before.
I just started getting into furniture refinishing and I actually purchased some Dixie Bell paint and used it for the first time last weekend! So much fun!!
I fell in love with silk paint. It is so easy to use and the colors are beautiful.
I totally agree!
I have never painted furniture, but I have stripped, stained and polyed old furniture. I have wanted to try the silk paint on a desk that's been in my garage for years, so maybe this is the year to go for it. Thanks again for sharing ❣
I've painted many pieces of furniture, but I'm always looking to learn more. Love your videos and I watch you cause you are one of my favorites! Have a blessed day 🌹
Awesome! Looks great! …I was chuckling to myself when you said you couldn’t get the drawers out…. I’ve redone a few pieces, including a set of nightstands… to which, I had the same problem! My husband and I could not figure out how to get the drawers out 🤣
I have painted quite a bit of furniture. I love watching your videos and I always learn something. Plus your videos are fun and I look forward to them.
Great flip! Great instruction. Thanks Christina!
I've never finished furniture but am looking forward.
I have not painted a piece of furniture, only repainted old kitchen cabinets. I want to do my first furniture restore. I have a night stand I bought and plan on redoing in a modern color scheme, but need to watch more of your videos to feel comfortable doing it. Thanks for your easy explanations.
I love the way this piece was finished. Just beautiful. I’m working on a dresser/desk piece and I’m going to use this color. Thanks Christina. I’ve improved my skills from watching your videos…brilliant.
Absolutely stunning!
I have painted some furniture, but never with Dixie Belle paints. I would love to try this product line. I always enjoy your videos. Thank you for what you do!
Christina you never disappoint me. I wish I had half the talent you do. I love Dixie Belle paint. I would love to win the $100 Dixie Belle. This is absolutely beautiful.
Great work Christina. Beautiful transformation. It looks so smooth.
I have just started to refinish some projects. I have learned so much from you to build my confidence. I am learning what to paint and what to stain and the kinds of wood finishes. I just finished a piece that I am so proud of. Painted most of it but sanded and refinished some parts. A good paint is so important and now there are so many good choices! Thanks for all your tips.
I painted my first piece 6 months ago . . . My great grandmother’s cedar chest! I love how it turned out and can’t wait to do something else. I love your channel and have learned so much from your videos. 🙏 thank you
Watch you all the time!! You explain process and why you use materials, very clearly. Thank you for your hard work!
Absolutely LOVE what you did with that dresser! Love finding pieces to paint as well.
I think I was about 11 years old when I painted my first piece of furniture. We had a set of bookcases, which my dad asked me to paint. I was too young to say “no” to my dad. But first had to remove the 4 coats of oil-based gloss enamel paint with paint stripper and sandpaper. (No electric sander). I don’t remember how long it took me to do, And it’s amazing I continued to paint throughout my life. As the last 59 years have passed, paint products have certainly improved and it is definitely easier to paint furniture now. But the steps to paint furniture are the same: clean the furniture, sand it, dust it off, carefully paint, sanding between coats, and use a top coat to protect the finish. As for the bookcases, I still have one, repainted several times.
This is one of my favorite colors! I have painted many pieces of furniture and started my own business. I have learned so much from you and even when you do a beginners video, I still learn new things, so thank you!!!! Silk is by far my favorite line.
Gorgeous color!
OOOOOOOH CHRISTINA! That is STUNNING! Thank you for taking us along with you on this AMAZING flip!
While I have been painting for a few years now, I love that you keep your content beginner friendly and include all that info a lot of us had to learn the hard and messy way. I also LOVE the Silk line and am so excited for their new colors. Can't wait to see what you and the other content creators do with them!
Beautiful! I love your painting ideas and you teach them so well. Thank you Christina! ♥️
Love this piece. Love the color. Thank you for the tips on non wooden surface. I have only painted a few pieces & definitely still learning! Thank you!
Beautiful re-do: it gives hope to us who are on the verge. I am about to do some end tables and an old dresser. Thank you for all the information and encouragement.
Gorgeous piece! I love that color and the hardware is perfect for it.
Wow thanks for this! I have been looking for pieces to restore and have avoided getting items that aren’t real wood because I didn’t think it would turn out. I’m so happy now that I can finally find something to work with
Very new to painting furniture so I only painted one small table, never used all in one paint, came out very nice. I love watching & learning so much.
Awesome! Thank you!
I love how you simple it down for us. I have done a few pieces but would love to do more. Thank you!
Stunning! Thanks for the tip about starting in the center and moving to the edge to prevent drips! Clever and I will be using that tip on tomorrow's project!!!
yay! love the feathering technique
The color is really beautiful and the piece so elegant! Thanks for charing!
Gorgeous!
I’ve painted a small wooden lazy susan for starters and a side table! I’m excited to try bigger pieces! Thank you so much for such an informative video..! 💛
Beautiful video, thank you! Yes I have painted furniture, many solid oak kitchen tables and pine cabinets. I have stripped many to raw wood, treated for worm wood and then many coats of clear varnish. I love to learn more about changing up old brown furniture (antiques) to more fresh neutral colors.
I have painted lot of furniture inspired by you and love love Dixie belle. Thank you for all of the great inspiration and helpful tips and ideas.
I am slowly starting to paint furniture. I started with a small bedside table. I just recently purchased the slick stick, so it was great to see it in use prior to trying it out myself. Thank you for all your tutorials!! They really get me motivated to paint!
I have painted two pieces of furniture and one of them I still have in our bedroom. I'm getting ready to update it again for my daughters room. Thanks for all the great info!
I have only painted a few pieces, and thanks to your teachings, they came out Beautiful! I LOVE Dixie Belle paint. The colors are so beautiful and the paint is forgiving. Thank you for all you do. I have learned so much from you!
Love painting furniture! New hobby! 💕
Wow! Looks so sophisticated! As usual, great job!
Yes, I’ve painted a few pieces so far. Using helpful “Christina Tips”… You’ve taught me to prep properly. Thanks!
I’ve painted not-real-wood before, but I always learn something from you, Christina. You’re a great teacher. Beautiful job on the dresser and the video!
I used Dixie Belle buttercream for a desk. It turned out beautiful! Wonderful paint to work with.
Love this project you did.
I have always enjoyed refinishing furniture. After taking early retirement, I started up again and I love it! So relaxing for me. The before and after pictures are so satisfying. Thank you for all you do. I have learned so much from your videos.
Thanks for the great video! I’ve never painted a piece of furniture before, but have been binge watching furniture flipping videos because I desperately need to update my bedroom furniture. It’s mismatched, but mostly oak and in great condition, but I’ve had it almost 20 years. The color in your video preview caught my eye. This is the first silk finish I’ve seen and I’m so intrigued. Getting closer to working up the nerve of taking in this massive project. Probably a beginner mistake being overly ambitious, but I’m getting there.
Christina, you are such a great teacher and do a great job give thorough information. You are entertaining to watch too.
Gorgeous piece, great video
I’m working on my first project. I’m refinishing a cabinet with drawers, night stand and a bed headbord. I was going to sell it but you inspired me to try and redo it into something i could love. Thank you for sharing tons of useful ideas and information, you’ve really excited me to try my hand at being creative and giving new life rather than just replacing old furniture!
I appreciate you Christina. You keep short and sweet!. I get lost when there’s too much talking. Great beginners video! ❤️
Christina!!! I love your content and I watch and rewatch and gain confidence! I started because the same thing you said motivated you to start painting, I want to change some of my own things up. I feel like I can get “new” furniture and have massive satisfaction! I just want to paint! Thank you for creating these amazing videos!
Love watching your videos! Thanks for explaining every step. I have painted one or two pieces.
Beautiful piece. I’ve refinished furniture, but never painted any. Can’t wait to try Dixie Belle.
Very timely information. Have been frozen from beginning a project out of fear of messing it up. You just gave me step by step instructions and settled my paint color choice. Perfect! Thanks so much!!
Thanks! Your video is wonderful. I have this type of furniture and have been wanting to paint it. But have never painted furniture before. Thanks so MUCH! 😀
I love using Dixie Belle paint! I stared using from day one and never had any issues! Love your videos!! Especially the beginner ones🥰
Thank you for keeping it for people who don’t rework whole dresser. Thank you for keeping it real.
I love the silk line for all types of furniture! It’s my absolute favorite and it’s very simple once you get through the learning curve. I just finished a media console with Silk in Deep Sea, I need more 🤞🏼
It looks amazingly beautiful 😍
