Your rst coat of nish, whether it is wax, stain, varnish or paint should be thin and be prepared to add 2 or 3 more coats

after it has dried if you need to. The beauty of upcycling is you can add more coats or leave it as it is if you love the way it

looks, it really is your decision. Always leave enough time for your furniture to dry thoroughly before you paint, stain

varnish or wax and leave enough time in-between coats.

Chalk paints are great for painting over a dark stain or veneer and don’t need a primer giving a smooth all-over coverage.

You should apply a minimum of two to three thin layers of paint and nish with a layer of varnish or furniture wax which

will protect the paint from knocks and marks.

Try upholstering new chairs and painting or staining the wood frames, you will see a huge di erence and its actually quite

easy once you get started.
