Beach Vibes

By Hailey Duncan, Painter/Designer at Hailey Duncan Home in Elkhorn, NE.

This gorgeous entryway table was finished with General Finishes Milk Paint in the colors “Driftwood”, “Persian Blue”, “Seagull Gray”, and “Antique White”.

The base of the table has a bottom layer of Persian Blue.  From there, I used Driftwood and created a “wash” over the top by mixing it with a bit of water and wiping it back.  From there, I did A LOT of color blending with a water bottle and the remaining colors.  I also used some edged tools to create areas of “patina” and a bit of a sea salt/aged look for the perfect beach feel!  The table top is pure Driftwood.  

To top it off, this piece was distressed with a sanding block, and sealed with General Finishes High Perfermance Top Coat.
