Painting A Sofa

Yup, that's right. Ever paint a sofa?!?!?

Sometimes I receive submissions for DIY projects that blow me away, this is a DIY that did just that. 

Bethy who blogs over at I Just Love Today - decided to take on a weekend project by painting a sofa she bought on Craigslist for $75!




Below, she summarizes how she did it.

I just used a generic Walmart brand of paint in a color they matched from a pricier brand. The color they matched it to is: Glidden Rainforest Fern. There are plenty of other colors but I wanted a warmer tone of green! 



If you'd like to try something like this, here's what you'll need for this entire project: 

  • Latex Semi-gloss paint 
  • Fabric/Textile Medium 
  • Scented paint additive (Glade French Vanilla) 
  • Paint brush 
 














Would you ever consider doing this type of DIY project??? Or would you rather buy a new sofa?!?


If you'd like more in depth info or have any questions, visit Bethy's blog & email her there! Hmmm I'm totally inspired now....since my sofa is WHITE!!!


 Have a lovely weekend everyone!!
