Dark wood ➡️ bright white transformation! 🎨🤍
A project like this is all about the preparation. You can’t just paint over dark, stained wood and expect it to look right.
We started by scuffing and sanding the existing finish, followed by 2 coats of Shellac primer, with sanding in between to create a smooth, properly sealed surface and help prevent the dark stain from bleeding through.
Once the priming was complete, we lightly sanded everything and cleaned it thoroughly before moving on to the finish.
Finally, we applied 2 coats of quality paint to achieve that clean, crisp white finish.
The result? A completely different look that brightens the entire room and makes the space feel more open and refreshed. 🤍
It’s amazing what the right color — and the right prep work — can do to a space. 🔥
