I’m still working on my garage stash of furniture, all procured before the quarantine began. These well-made Lenoir House Broyhill end tables came from Goodwill and cost about $15 each.
I couldn’t find the exact video where they shared this technique, but check out their Youtube channel.

If you need more detailed information on Dixie Belle paint and products, you can download my free guide by clicking the picture here: Using Dixie Belle’s blackest black, Caviar, I mixed it with Sea Spray.
I just eyeballed the ratio, but I would guess it was about 2 ounces of paint to half a scoop of Sea Spray. After the black texture dried completely, I painted 2 coats of Cotton, Dixie Belle’s whitest white.
I wasn’t concerned about full coverage because we were going to bring the black back through with sanding anyhow.
The random placement of the Sea Spray makes the distressing look more organic and authentic. I distressed the drawer sides too because we don’t want them looking fresh and new while the rest looks chippy and worn.
