When we first moved into our home, we bought this corner booth. I wanted it not only for the seating, but for the extra storage that was built into the seats. But I don’t like browns, not the color or in wood tones. And for years, I would look at this booth & cringe.
By now, you know the way I think. If you like the piece, but the color doesn’t go with your home…. paint it! So I did.
It was a nice looking corner booth, but I couldn’t stand the brown anymore.
I started off by using Kilz primer & I primed the whole thing. I started with the detail areas & finished off the rest of it.
After waiting for what seemed like hours, the primer finally dried. I then painted on 2 coats of semi-gloss white paint, letting the first coat dry completely. I used semi-gloss because it cleans up better. (At least for me it does.)
Now my little corner booth is looking brand new & it goes with the color scheme in our home. Amazing what a can of paint can do.
Remember, if you like the piece, but it doesn’t go with your decor, paint it! It works every time.
Happy Creating everyone!
