French blue painted furniture

I purchased a vintage bedroom set and using General Finishes milk paint in the color Coastal Blue, I was able to give it new life. I love how the gold pops against the navy blue. The distressing really shows off the detail work in the pieces. Coastal Blue is a great navy blue and after distressing, it has a lot of depth to the color. In the light, it has almost a two toned affect with the darker and lighter hues. Vintage brass hardware. I cleaned them all with baking soda and lem…

Ashley ☀️ Bespoke Custom Painted Furniture on Instagram: "Take a look at some of the behind the scenes details and speciality finishes we used on this elegant French Provincial piece. We used a white glaze over the paisley blue paint to accentuate all of those beautiful carved details and to give it a softer and more delicate look. The red toned timber top was bleached a few times to help neutralise those tones before adding layers of blue and grey washes until we got the colouring just…

Last week I found this great Drexel vanity at the Flea market. Before: When I was looking at the vanity a French aqua popped into my head with a little gold, so that is what I went with. I mixed up a custom soft Frenchy Aqua by taking 1 part Jaded Roster ( The Urban Rooster ) and mixing it to 4 parts white. After painting 2 coats, I added some gilding past in gold with my finger and a fine tipped artist brush. I wanted the details to pop and I knew they would naturally get rubbed off when I…
