It's been a while since I've had an upcycling project. We are doing up the littlest bedroom who is finally ready for a big boy bed (where is the time going??). I wanted a really substantial unit that will fit ALL his clothes (that kid has more clothes then me!) Found this pine chest on good old FB marketplace. It's very big and very solid! Plan is to paint it up white (using Fusion Mineral paint in Casement) to match his room. Toying with idea of liming the top to make it look a little beachy 🤔 Well that's my Saturday afternoon activity sorted anyway!

Final coat on! I can see why people rave about this Fusion Mineral paint. It goes on SO well, only needed two coats and has a lovely smooth, matt finish. I have been converted! Added a bit of stenciling on the drawer sides as well. Just need to apply some clear tough coat to seal it and sort out the handles. Nearly there!

First coat on! Really love this colour, clean powder blue with a hint of green 😍

After a loooong break I've finally found some childfree time to work on this beauty. Personal project this time for our bedroom. I'm planning on using Fusion Mineral Paint in Heirloom. I've never used this paint before but I'm excited to see the results!

Sanding finished! Think all this needs now is a generous coating of clear wax and some new handles. Getting there!

Freshly sanded wood 🤓 Why would you ever cover this in a dark stain??

Luckily the rain held off and I managed to make a start on the bureau. Phew, sanding is hard work but satisfied with the result so far. Tbc!
