Sorry I haven't looked at my blog for a long time :). I wouldn't know what kind of paint for sure because it's been so long. But usually when I need black I would buy the walmart Crayola kind but I don't know if they still make it. The wood on top is just pine 1 x4's, the cheaper grade. I would stagger the pieces on to try and make it look planked. I glued and screwed each piece and left the screws visible. I sanded with an angle grinder to add a lot of distressing to the lumber
Thank u 4 the info. I want to do a chest also. Your very artistic and creative. Great is to add some diversity and design to a room. I'm going to try it. Thanks for sharing. . ��
Absolutely gorgeous!Excellent combination- love the black with the rustic planks on the Top!

ReplyDeleteDid you ever get a response on what type of wood was used on top?
DeleteDo you mind mentioning what color black you chose? It's such a beautiful, soft color, exactly what I'm looking for to do a piece of furniture myself.

Im interested in doing something simular. Can you tell me the color? It looks like a soft black rather than a jet dark black. I love it.
ReplyDeleteLove the colour and the planking. Please share any other treasures you have created.
