To Paint Or Not To Paint?
I have been debating about this project for quite a while now. I was going to write this post to ask your opinion, “To paint or not to paint?” But I think have already answered my own question.As I was taking these photos of all of the furniture details, I made up my mind that I can not paint over this piece of furniture.This armoire is one piece of four large pieces of bedroom furniture. It was originally my husband’s father’s father. It is still in very good condition.Here is another piece from this set:Pretty cool vanity, don’t you think? Look at the detail up close:I love it but I do not know what to do with it. This piece is not in the best shape: But it is just the top and that will be easy enough to sand and stain. Does anyone know the history of these pieces? I would love to learn more about this furniture. I was going to ask you if you thought I should paint them over in a beautiful, soft color or leave as is. But I do not think I would be able to paint over this finish and never be able to get back to the original again.So, why was I thinking of painting it over?!:
That is why I consider painting everything! So beautiful and unique.
See! Now I am starting to change my mind again! When I see these pictures, I feel weak!
Ok, let’s take a look:Original: Or painted?: What would you do?If you need help decorating your home, contact me today.
