Painting Bedroom Furniture - Easy steps for a beautiful finish

Painting your bedroom furniture is a fantastic way to refresh your space without breaking the bank.

In this simple guide, we’ll walk you through how to paint bedroom furniture like a pro, from selecting the right paint to the tools you’ll need and essential tips to make your project a success.

When it comes to painting bedroom furniture, picking the right type of paint is crucial for a perfect finish.

Look for paints designed for furniture, like our Eco Chic or our Eggshell No.17, as they provide great coverage and durability.

Especially if you’re after an eco friendly option with a wide variety of colours that are safe for your home and the planet.

Choosing the right colour for your furniture can completely transform the look and feel of your bedroom.

If you’re going for a calm, serene atmosphere, we’d suggest soft, neutral tones like pale blues, greys, or taupe.

For a bolder, statement piece, deep greens or dark blues can add a pop of personality to your room.

When choosing paint for bedroom furniture, always consider how the colour will complement your room orientation and décor.

Before starting your project, make sure you have all the necessary painting tools on hand.

You’ll need the right paint for bedroom furniture, such as clay or eggshell paint, and a high quality paintbrush, preferably smaller for detailed areas.

If you have a creative design in mind, painter’s tape is great to protect any areas you don’t want to paint.

Lay down dust sheets or newspaper to protect your floors, and have clean cloths ready for wiping down surfaces.

Lastly, have fun and get creative!

Proper preparation is key when learning how to paint bedroom furniture.

Start by removing any hardware, like knobs or handles.

Sand the surface lightly to remove any old paint or varnish, and wipe down the furniture with a damp cloth to remove dust.

Make sure to read the instructions on your paint of choice carefully as with our Eggshell No.17 we’d suggest using a Multi surface primer.

This ensures that your paint will go on smoothly to the furniture and provides a flawless finish.
