China Hutch ...after
Not that long ago, I told you about Me & Mrs. Jones. I reached out to her, via e-mail, for help with my china hutch. This is my hutch. I painted it a medium gray and silverleafed the back. I was not happy with it. it needed more depth and interest.
This is the real "before", long before I blogged.
Stephanie (Me & Mrs. Jones) suggested the following...use this over the paint
Here are the steps, first use 400 grit sandpaper to break the seal
I repeated this one more time (2 coats total), and now I have this
It is exactly what I wanted...and it only took ....2 tries! Sometimes things take me..... 3 tries, or is that 3 trips in the car? Thank you Stephanie! On average, how many tries does a project take you?

Wipe on the stain
Then, wipe off the excess.
