  • In today's video I will be teaching you how to make over a bed frame--the easy way--using chalk paint! For this DIY furniture flip, I will be using ‪@DixieBellePaint‬ Chalk Mineral Paint in the color Caviar, as well as using their Flat Clear Coat to seal the paint. Anyone can do this makeover (or any makeover on my channel for that matter). You just need to have the time and a little bit of patience!
    If you enjoy this video, please give it a thumbs up! And if you didn't like it, give it a thumbs down.
    Thanks for watching and I'll see you all next time.
    xoxo,
    Holly

      I would love to paint my bed frame but I don't think I would be brave enough to paint it black Maybe maybe a nice creamy color but thank you for giving me this idea

    looks nice! A couple of tips; when washing [anything, really], use 2 buckets; a wash bucket [with detergent] and a rinse bucket. Put your rag in the wash bucket, and scrub away; *rinse the rag in the rinse bucket*; THEN put it back in the wash bucket. That way, 95% of the dirt goes in the wash bucket; and you save a ton of detergent. As the rinse bucket gets dirty, dump it out, and refill with plain water; your wash bucket [with the detergent] will stay clean for much longer. you don't mind changing out the rinse bucket frequently, since it's just plain water. Also, avoid painting in full sun; bad for the way the paint dries. Nice work, though, I'm sure the owner was happy : )

    • @ChicAntiquebyHolly
      @ChicAntiquebyHolly  Před rokem +1

      i use the two bucket method now. this video is pretty old. sun doesn't affect chalk paint in my experience, but thanks for the feedback!

    Looks pretty good. I know there has to be concessions, but I have found that spray paint works better on vertical surfaces and brush paint on horizontal. I do like your music.

      I love using a paint brush. It’s extremely therapeutic for me and I love the artistic aspect of it as well. It makes me feel connected to my pieces. Maybe that will change in the future, who knows, but that’s why I don’t prefer spray paint.

    Looks great! I have never done anything like this. Ever!! I am thinking of buying an old bed on FB and making it look fresh and modern (something similar to this). Do you think that I would be able to follow along with these techniques and actually change the look of the wood stained bed without totally screwing it up?? It looks so simple and easy (sorta LOL) but you are a total pro

      wow! it's going to be a lot of work, but you'll need to strip and sand. the stain on this is so dark and red. if you put a watered down white paint or gel stain right over it, it's going to look pink.

    Could I ask how much paint did you need for this project? We have a queen size sleigh bed like this one and want to paint but not sure how much we need.

    • @ChicAntiquebyHolly
      @ChicAntiquebyHolly  Před rokem +1

      i completed this project a long time ago, and my memory is not very good to be honest. it would depend on what color the frame is currently, what paint you are using, and the color. if you are using a dark color like this, it will take 2-3 coats of paint to achieve full coverage. something lighter or white would require anywhere from 3-5 coats. my new favorite paint is Behr Dynasty, so I would highly recommend using that. the coverage is really great, and it has a built-in top coat which makes your project so much easier & faster. I would get a 16oz container to start. it's very affordable paint too, more so than chalk paint. I used it in this video if you'd like to see how to use it:

    • @ChicAntiquebyHolly
      @ChicAntiquebyHolly  Před 2 lety +4

      You don’t have to. I prime almost all my pieces because I want them to be as durable as possible.
      I primed this piece because it will be used daily so I wanted the paint to adhere really well and make sure the paint job was durable.

    • @tonin447
      @tonin447 Před rokem

      Yes varnish is difficult to paint over that's why the primer was used. It can bleed colour through the new coats. I'd have used grey primer

I'm wondering if that made you feel good about yourself, if even just for a second. Oh, as a side note, there's a button you can click on your device that will allow you to exit the video. You should learn how to use it.
