Answer
Revamp vintage furniture for your bedroom by first cleaning and lightly sanding the surfaces. Choose a soft, warm neutral paint color like sage green or muted cream, which unifies mismatched pieces. Apply primer before painting to ensure durability and a smooth finish. Use chalk paint or milk paint for an authentic vintage look that allows easy distressing. Finish with a protective topcoat suited for furniture. This DIY painting transforms thrifted dressers or vanities into cohesive, personalized bedroom focal points that blend perfectly with eclectic decor.
