Chippy Paint on Colorful Dresser Knobs

It's like a vase of fresh flowers...

 

these colorful chippy paint knobs!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just a bowl of colorful hardware

 

with a chippy old paint styling

 

is a fun blast of texture.

 

I need that in January!

 

I'm already thinking spring color and warm weather.

 

 

 

 

I really didn't have any plan to post about this

 

but when these colors made me happy on this rainy day

 

I thought they might make you happy too.

 

They started out black and were great that way too.

 

 

 

But the color adds such a nice pop

 

that will go with Dane's comforter...

 

a mix of blue, green, red and orange.

 

 

 

 

To get the chippy look:

 

Your base coat will be what you want to show through.

 

It's great if it can be a semi-gloss base

 

but other finishes work too.

 

When you put the first coat of paint on

 

it will be a faded washed out look.

 

To get the vibrant color

 

you will need to apply about 3 coats.

 

After it dries,

 

Brush on Polycrylic Sealer.

 

 

 

 

While it is wet or damp,

 

take a paper towel and rub off color in places.

 

Now you have the chippy paint look!

 

Here are the paint color details:

Sharing my little bowl of color

 

with you today!
