Mid-Century Modern to Modern Chic
I Love a Modern Cinderella Story
Today I am sharing another one of my furniture restorations. I was out on the hunt for a set of nightstands for my bedroom and I found this poor little mid-century piece that had been hidden under thick unattractive beige paint for years.
I started with Citristrip for this one. I brushed it on kind of thick and let it sit in our hot garage for about 45 mins. Then all I had to do was use a plastic scrapper and the paint slid right off. I think this was probably the easiest project I have ever had.
I cleaned up the mess, washed it then wiped it down with denatured alcoholand let dry for 24 hrs. I did a little light sanding with 120 grit and finished with 220.
I stained it using my favorite stain.
Minwax - walnut
and like most of the pieces I have done it was polished off with a coat of furniture wax.
I have been fine tuning my personal style for many decades, soooo many decades!
My picture quality on some of my projects reflect that.
But I think you can get the gist of my style. It is totally white and wood with mid-century modern influences. I would say that growing up mid-century may have something to do with that.
What do you think?
Have a glorious day!
