From Dated to Dreamy: A Timeless Vanity Makeover with Miracle Paint
When it comes to transforming old furniture into something stylish and refreshed, the right products make all the difference. This stunning makeover by @brasswalnut showcases the power of One Hour Miracle Paint in the soft and sophisticated shade My London Flat—and the results speak for themselves.
Originally a dated 1980s vanity, this piece underwent a full transformation using Amy Howard at Home’s professional-grade paint line designed for high-traffic surfaces. Miracle Paint is a self-sealing, self-leveling formula with a satin finish that’s ideal for cabinetry, vanities, and other pieces that need long-lasting durability without sacrificing beauty.
Here’s How She Did It:
-
Prep Work: The entire piece was cleaned with Clean Slate to remove any wax, oil, or residue that could prevent proper adhesion. The top and legs were fully stripped and sanded, while the rest received a light scuff sand.
-
Custom Touches: Half wood ball trim was glued on to elevate the design and create a flush, custom look across the front.
-
Painting: Two coats of Miracle Paint in My London Flat were brushed on, offering excellent coverage and a smooth, satin finish with minimal brush marks.
-
Finishing Details: The wood top and legs were given a subtle paint wash to tone the raw wood and sealed with Amy Howard Matte Sealer for a natural, protected finish.
The end result is a completely refreshed vanity with a modern, tailored look—proof that a little creativity and high-quality materials can breathe new life into any piece of furniture.
Whether you’re new to refinishing or looking for a reliable product for more advanced transformations, Miracle Paint is a must-have in your DIY toolkit. With built-in primer and sealer, it simplifies the painting process and ensures a durable, satin finish that holds up beautifully over time.
