To protect your furniture from fading, avoid keeping your furniture next to windows and other places where it can be exposed to direct sunlight. Step 4: Let it all dry and seal with a top coat! FAT paint makes a clear top coat, but I had enough in an old can kicking around so I used that to seal it.Try and use a tablecloth or any thick quality cloth on your dining table or any other table which is subject to daily and heavy use.ĭo not keep warm or cold items directly on a furniture surface instead use a hot pad or coasters please do not keep hot items like a tawa or baking dish even on a hot pad. You can see the outlines from the details I traced, but after the second coat they were gone, so it all worked! You can find tons of inspiration on Pinterest (and even in my own posts) so don’t be shy about doing some research. I always opt for symmetry, in the design, so I usually place things to make sure it all works first. It was time consuming, but I wanted a clean look.Įach design is unique, and the fun comes when you get to create the look. I find that the older the stencils, the harder it is to get a clean roll, so for a couple of the designs I actually traced and then painted by hand. Step 3: Using your stencil start rolling on your design in chalk white. Step 2: Once you’ve got the bottom coat, use a roller and apply a second coat. It should glide on, so take the time to get all the little nooks and crannies for total coverage. Once that first coat is on, the rest glides on like butter.ĭon’t ya just love the state of my manicure? hahaha I definitely went home and gave myself a new colour after seeing how bad it looked in all the photos. Because FAT paint is amazing, I didn’t even need to sand or prime before I started. I chose Juno because I wanted pink, but I needed it to be strong enough that it would show nicely under the white stencil work. Step 1: Paint the table in your base coat.

FAT Paint in Juno and Chalky White – depending on how big the table is you may need more or less.Matierials for DIY Bone Inlay Coffee Table This one fell into my lap for the right price of 20$, so I knew it was meant to be. I lost out because a lot of them sold beforehand, or were too good to paint. I tried thrift stores, online classifieds, in stores and more. I’ve know about this project for ages, and have spent just as long looking for the right coffee table. Like with any furtniture project, it all starts with the right piece. Thank you for supporting the brands that make PMQ for two possible.

sponsored this post, but all thoughts are my own. My DIY bone Inlay Coffee Table is one of the final missing pieces for the studio space, so as soon as it’s finished I can finally show it off to y’all.Ĭheck out my previous FAT PAINT projects: Striped Entryway Console // Bone Inlay Dresser // Glossy Blue Sideboard // DIY Neon Light Considering I’ve used it 3 times now I probably should have just bought my own, but hey! you live and ya learn.

I use a stencil from Cutting Edge Stencils that my friend Emy from Semigloss Design let me have after she was done for it. It’s a great way to bring colour and bold pattern to your space, and I’ve done it twice before, so at this point I’m a pro. It should come as no surprise to you that I’ve got a hard-on for all things with bone inlay.
