Hi everyone, Denise from Salvaged Inspirations here!
For today, I have a spring-inspired curb-shopped before and after along with time-saving tips and some color advice!
Materials List:
- China Cabinet – SALVAGED
- Paint Brushes
- Sandpaper | Shop Towels
- Water Misting Spray Bottle
- Slick Stick
- BOSS Primer
- Palmetto Green
- Kudzu Green
- Limeade
- Cosmic Roses Transfer
- Clear Wax
How To:
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked – what colors should I use? My response is always the same and couldn’t be more straightforward and simple.
Color is a personal preference. What I might like could be a color combo you hate or vice-versa. Follow your heart and your own instincts and use colors YOU love!
Cosmic Roses was my inspiration for this makeover. I went with my gut on this one and pulled in a variety of greens from this floral transfer.
I used Slick Stick to avoid sanding and BOSS to cover any bleedthrough.
I started with this gorgeous Palmetto Green on the legs and bottom.
Then added this Kudzo Green.
And finally, this Limeade – a cheerful bright yellow/green.
Once I had my three base colors down, the second coat was all about blending. If you’d like to learn my blending technique you can check it out on my Youtube here.
