It's kind of a dark room, so I don't want the dresser to be black. What color should I paint it? I'm terrible at this stuff. Not the prettiest dresser, but it was free. Ideas please??

Comments (17)It looks very pretty. I would look at pics of painted floors versus whitewashed and see which you prefer then people can hopefully help with methods. I've used chalk paint but not on a floor. Annie Sloan sell floor lacquer so you don't need to use the wax which is very time consuming to apply, the lacquer can be rollered on. The only thing I would say is that it does not adhere to I think varnish made in the 80's and I find the White paint coverage is poor although not an issue if white washing. I wondered if there was a cheat method using zinsser to avoid sanding if using normal paint and have found this, no idea on how successful it is! http://www.zinsseruk.com/how-to-guide/how-to-paint-woodstained-or-varnished-surfaces/...See MoreI hear gray bathroom tiles what color of paint should I use on walls

Comments (0)Hey everyone Just looking for some advice. I’ve attached pics of my shower room wall and floor tiles. Looking for some inspiration on how to finish it and what colour to paint the walls? I had a really pale pink in mind but I’ve completely gone off that idea. I was thinking more moody maybe like a dark grey? Any ideas welcome. Thanks...See More

10 years agoI'm liking the blue idea too. Or green. Or aqua. Or have you considered decoupaging? Could use sheet music as shown in pic four,more you can use wrapping paper or scrap booking paper. Decoupaging is pretty easy to do. You could even do it on the dresser top only and then paint the sides.
One more possible dresser color - black.

10 years agoHa ha - those aren't my projects! I got them off my Pinterest boards. I'm not very crafty either,mbut,I do occasionally paint furniture and have a few projects planned, so I pin different ideas for color.
The white would be fine but have you considered hanging curtain panels on the window? The white dresser on a white wall would look better with the softness of some curtains to break them up.

10 years agoMeghana, Try something like this if you go with blue - something with a bit of grey in it. Ben Moore Smokestack Gray or Normandy.
