Lost & Found Decor

Learn how to paint an ombre dresser with this easy furniture painting tutorial!

Materials Needed for this DIY Ombre Dresser:

– Fusion Mineral Paint Organic TSP – Fusion Mineral Paint in Casement, Homestead Blue, and Midnight Blue – Synthetic Flat 2″ Brushes – Tough Coat – 220 grit sandpaper

Mark the Sections

To start, I marked off 3 horizontal sections on the dresser (just eyeballing it).

1

Paint

I painted the topmost section with 3 coats of Casement, then the middle section in 2 coats Homestead Blue, and base section 2 coats of Midnight Blue.

2

Blend the Colors

I added a bit of each color along the line where the different sections meet. I spritzed that area with a bit of water, and dragged my brush back and forth over the wet paint to blend the 2 colors together.

3

Coat

I lightly distressed the whole piece along the edges, then added a few layers of Tough Coat onto the top, just to add a bit of extra protection to the crisp white.
