Stain / Flaux Mix

By Laura Johnson-Hernandez, Owner and Design Artist at Designs by Laura in South St Paul, MN.

This set turned out with the perfect combo of paint and stain.

I used GF Antique Walnut Gel Stain and painted the rest in Millstone, than I applied van dyke Glaze and Burnt Umber Glaze sanding in between layers to get a weathered finish.  On the drawers I dry brushed Linen, Snow White, Antique White and Choc Brown sanding in between to blend colors to perfection.
