Stool with Coastal Vibes in Artisan Velvet Luxe and Premium Chalk Paint - with painted fabric
Transforming a piece with Artisan paints is an opportunity to infuse your unique style, creating something one-of-a-kind that stands apart from mass-produced items. We often embrace the philosophy of #seethingsdifferently, inviting you to view a piece of furniture as a blank canvas filled with endless possibilities with Artisan Paints.
Whether it's a grand furniture item or a small, seemingly insignificant piece, the transformation can be nothing short of remarkable. Take this old, dated stool, once unwanted and cast aside to an op shop. It's undergone a complete redesign, a testament to the transformative powers of Artisan paints.
We've used Artisan colour and different finishes to break up and reshape the piece visually, even adding a silver stripe to the fabric to harmonize with the silver leg, creating a seamless connection. The beautiful pairing of blue and white exudes coastal vibes, and the touch of luxury is elegantly achieved with Arcadian Silver. It's proof that with Artisan paints, the potential for reinventing and reviving old furniture is endless. 🎨🪚💫 #ArtisanPaints #FurnitureMakeover #UniqueDesigns
What we did:
Painted the frame around the seat in Velvet Luxe Old Chiffon, creating a contemporary velvety smooth one colour finish
The legs have been painted in Royal Navy Premium Chalk Paint and we've created added depth and shading by finishing off 3 of the legs with Carbon Black Wax
The other leg finished in Aracdian Silver using 20mls of Illuminator to 6 Tads (measurement off the artisan measuring spoons) of Arcadian Metallic Concentrate. The same mix has also been used to paint the silver stripe on the fabric.
Note/ Tip: we completed the silver leg with 3 coats of Arcadian Silver to achieve this finish, to use less product/ coats. Do a base coat of whatever you intend to be silver with a colour like Parisian Grey, Stormy Creek or Clubhouse Grey
