Like most twentysomethings, I have a hodgepodge of furniture in my house. Some of it's that cheap, assemble-yourself stuff that you find online or at a discount somewhere. Since I couldn't get buyers for some of the pieces on Craigslist, and some had some surface damage, I decided to paint some of it while I still had a garage to work in. I'd read online that you can use this primer on laminate so you don't have to sand. I bought some semi-gloss paint for the furniture.
I bit off more than I could chew. I am not good at painting stuff. It looks like an amateur did it, because I did. And while some people would prefer the furniture the way it was pre-painted, it just didn't fit the aesthetic I wanted, or it was damaged and had to be painted.
Sigh. I don't know if I'll ever do this again; I had visions of the lovely stuff I see at Two Women & a Warehouse. It was an ambitious project, and I am relieved to be finished. I know I seem very blah about it, but I decided to post the photos anyways. Why not? :-/
