I want to paint the bottom (three drawers) white and stain the top it's natural wood color, which I think is walnut.
Did you spray paint or brush it on? |
I used a synthetic brush (not animal bristles) and just brushed it on. Spray painting prob would've been SO much easier though, lol. I can never get spray paint to look right though, can you? It always ends up blotchy for me. For some big project (like in 2033
), I want to rent an air compressor and use it to paint...I've heard those are great.

Lol - and I eyeballed it
! I guess these 44 yr old eyes are hangin' in
. Altho, I must admit how easy they were...they're not really 'real' file thingys - they're stick-on; altho you could also put in little nails/screws afterward, if desired.
