I am looking forward to checking out all your projects this week! I have two simple little pieces to share with you today. I bought this nightstand as part of my 35 dollar haul a few weeks ago. And I painted them along side the coffee table which I kept out of that haul.
See the vanity stool on the left and the waterfall nightstand in the middle? They both got the same treatment.
I sanded them down and painted it with two coats of General Finishes Milk Paint which I purchased at the Stylish Patina barn where I am a vendor. Once dry, I finished them with a wipe on poly. On the nightstand, I added a more dramatic lion head pull I had on hand. Here are the end results!
Sometimes a simple black or white paint is all it takes to make a piece new again!
Now it's your turn to show off your latest and greatest furniture builds or makeovers!

Cassie that black? is so silky smooth, it must be the milk paint. I'm working on a black makeover but I don't think they'll come out looking that awesome. Love the new finish, really professional job.
Cassie I love the black, the lion head knob really pops against it. Nice job. As always, thanks for hosting. Dee from My Painted Stuff.
I'm first!! Can't believe it!
I love that lion head night stand, the colour and finish are beautiful!
Gorgeous Cassie! I think waterfall-style pieces can be hard to makeover and you did a phenomenal job on this one. Did you use a bonding agent with the milk paint? I love the finish on both pieces. I'm getting ready to start a desk that will be done in black and your post makes me want to do it in milk paint!
I'm in love with the lion head pull! Looks great with the nightstand.
That was some great vision with the nightstand. I'm not sure I'd have seen the potential in the original piece. The lion's head pull is a.maz.ing.
We all seem to go in waves don't we? I've got a piece lined up for some black-ish paint too, I'm loving it at the moment and yours is gorgeous!! LOVE the lion ;)
The finish on these pieces looks flawless! So pretty and classic in black! And I love the updated photo with the munchkins! You guys are too cute!
Black and gold always equals goodness in my book. How the sale go this weekend?
I love the simplicity of the black...such a classic, stunning look!
Gorgeous finish...it's like buttah baby!
Oooh, fabulous hardware choice! I couldn't help but click on a few of those link-ups ~ good stuff in your party!
Wonderful finish on your pieces! Can't go wrong with a classic color!
LOVE that look! Thanks for hosting xox
Brilliant finish! So sleek and pretty:) Thanks so much for hosting!
Love the black!
You always do a gREAt job, and they look beaUtiful! But that BED is a great candidate for upholstering!!!
Nice finds!

I always return to black, especially a soft muted tone. Your nightstand and little stool look so elegant!
Fall is my favorite time for family activities. So many things to do that my kids at different ages all enjoy. Like.....Giants winning the pennant! Sorry, had to say it. Go Giant's!
I love black with gold hardware!
Rawr! Love that lion, chickie!
How can I get a can of that black paint?
I have wanted to do my kitchen chairs black and yours is just wonderful.
Thanks for hosting

Now you're making me wish I used milk paint! Love the finish on those pieces you did….and the lion's head pull!! Beautiful, as usual! Thank you for hosting - I am so excited to actually have something to link up this week!!!
You know I love me some lion head pulls! Both pieces are beautiful! :) Happy Tuesday!
U know how I love a lion head pull. Great job friend, I love them both :) And I love you!
Awesome! That lion head pull is out of control...I seriously love it. I need to find a project I can throw a lion head on!
that chair is so unique! what a great shape. I also think the lion head pull is perfect for that end table!
I agree with lots of other commenters....the finish is beautiful. It's so smooth and sleek! Black really suits that piece and the lion's head pull is the crowning jewel. Lovely job Cassie!
Love that color, Cassie -- awesome job, as usual!

Love a good lionhead pull!!! Looks great Cassie!!!
Thanks for hosting, great work, good choice on black!
I love how your black always comes out so clear and smooth!!
Glad I got to link up! :)
The black is so amazing - I need to try black on something! And wipe on poly over milk paint?? That sounds much better than waxing!
So glad I finally have some furniture to link up!
I agree wholeheartedly. Love the black!
What a great transformation, Cassie! I love the Lion's head, pull!
You go girl!
blessings,

Love General Finshes! It was my first exposure to milk paint. Our island stools are painted in that same black, and I adore it. Love the lion head pull you added!!!
