This is such a fun and easy project for making furniture new again with mineral paint. The furniture in question was a buffet I purchased around ten years ago that I originally used in my dining room. When we moved into this house, I decided to revert to my old dining room furniture so I needed a new home for this cabinet. It’s a gorgeous piece of furniture but it was the dark wood that just didn’t blend with anything else I had in my dining room. I didn’t want to chunk it, although it’s a decade old, it’s in great shape.
This week I had had enough of looking at this piece. I went out to the garage and found the previously unopened Fusion Mineral Paint in Pebble. I bought this originally because I planned on redoing my bathroom vanity in Pebble. But like so many projects around the house I just haven’t gotten to it yet.
I didn’t want to do too much work to refinish this cabinet so I just cleaned it off really good with a warm rag with some diluted Dr. Bronner’s Castile soap. This soap does a great job of cutting through grease and grime so I figured it would be a good way to clean and prep the buffet for paint. After I had it cleaned and dry, it was go time.
This process was so simple! I have no desire to make things seem harder than they really are to impress you with my mad furniture refinishing skills, so I can just tell you this project could not have been easier. First thing, this paint is some of the best I’ve ever used. I absolutely love Fusion Mineral Paint. It goes on so smooth and really clings well to the surface. I wasn’t sure whether I would need multiple coats since I was painting onto a very dark surface. Using one of my synthetic paint brushes, I brushed on a coat of Pebble Fusion Paint. After I finished the first coat and stood back I couldn’t have been happier. My result was a beautiful distressed finish that was the perfect look for my room. If I wanted a nice, smooth look, one more coat would easily achieve that goal. But the second I looked at the finished product I decided the distressed look I had achieved with my Fusion Mineral Paint was perfection and one of the easiest I’ve ever done.
