I had this conversation with a client recently...this is a similar question to ones I've received before. The question, though familiar, reveals several unspoken fears...
1. There's familial attachment somehow and I could be letting that person (or the closest living relative down) if I paint it.
2. It's nice WOOD - and it's pretty much against all rules over the entire history of time to PAINT it.
3. It'll bring down the value if I paint it.
3. What if I suck at painting and I ruin it?
The word suck isn't generally used, but the sentiment is there. What if I ruin it?!
To which I ask...
1. Are you taking a hammer to it?
2. Are you taking a chainsaw to it?
3. Are you creating gauges, dents and irreparable damage?
NO! You're just PAINTING it.
What's the WORST that can happen if you don't like it? You sand it down and stain it. End of story.
In today's episode I dive into the questions you should ask yourself if you are on the fence of making the most unheard of, anarchical decision to paint a piece of wood furniture. Take a listen...then go grab my paint class for how to chalk paint furniture where I walk you through step-by-step how to do it in such a way that you end up feeling SO glad that you took the risk!
