Welcome back my Beauties!
Long time no see.
The kids are all back in school and we are finally starting to get back into our normal routine, slowly but surely.

That means also getting back into my makeover routine.
Todays makeover is going to show you how I transformed this outdated 80's pine rolling kitchen cart into a farmhouse style cart using Deco Arts Vintage Effect wash paint and some mineral oil.
First things first. I had to take care of those nasty stains on the top of the cart.
For that I just used my Rockwell random orbital sander and some medium sandpaper.
I knew the stains were topical and weren't going to take much sanding so I didn't want to use low grit sandpaper and rip apart the wood on the top.
Once I had the top all cleaned up I could put the protective and food safe finish on the top.
After hours of research I found out the safest and cheapest way to
seal a butcher block is with Mineral Oil.
Yup...simple mineral oil that you can get in the drug store for just a few bucks.
Now it was time to finish the base.
For that I used Deco Arts Vintage Effects wash.
You can click on the pic for a little video example of how easy it was to use.
This is after the real quick wipe on with the cloth.
I loved how easy it was to use and to transform the piece giving it a vintage feel.
Even better it SOLD the first day at the booth!
What a difference a little mineral oil and some paint made.
Thanks for checking out the latest makeover, and hopefully with all of us getting back in routine, the same will go for my posts :)
Until next time,
Have a BEAUTIFUL day!
