In preparing this piece for painting, I removed laminated wood from the side and top which was just too warped to repair. I also glued a bit here and there. I make my own paint for most projects I do. For this project I started with a coat of white and added a coat of a light grey over that. For the inside I have chosen a rose pink. By the way, the colors I made for this project were done from a base using Valspar paints.
When this piece is finished I will have it on my site www.facebook.com/SweettiqueInIowa. Hopefully, soon it will be for sale in my shop Sweet-tique at 509 First Street in Bonaparte, Iowa. If you are in the area stop by and see what I am working on!
*If you notice, I am not mentioning exact color names. Since I make my own paint I will not plug any other company. However, if I do use a particular product I will be glad to let you know what so that you may try the product out for yourself.*
