Many DIY Steps to Faux Painting and Distressing Furniture

DateSeptember 28, 2011

Irwin Weiner ASID - Are you a do-it-yourselfer? I can barely spell "DIY," but I can wield some power tools masterfully and hang a mean picture or wall accessory! Perhaps it was the fascination with things I haven't done before that attracted me to this video demonstration of the different steps to distressing furniture. I can see this technique applied to new wood floors (well, maybe not all the steps, but certainly some of them), kitchen cabinetry, and picture frames. This might be something I take up in my dotage and set up a home shop in the basement and crank out gifts for friends and family. So if you see some DIY distressing in your future, try the techniques in this Designed & Made Custom Workworking video.
