    This Art Deco Vanity Desk was a thrift store find that was in surprisingly good condition. It didn’t need any repairs, just a good cleaning, and a light sanding.

    We kept our supply list pretty simple.

    The best brushes for painting

    Ever wonder what brushes you need for your painting projects? We’ve curated this incredible box set just for you! No more guessing what brushes you need, this box set has you covered! Every brush you need to paint like a pro. Included in this set is a unique shorter handle wax brush.

    Quick prep

    Since this piece was already in amazing condition all we had to do was give it a quick clean with a 1:4 Fusion TSP Alternative to warm water and scrubbed it down with wiping cloths. After a light scuff sanding, it was ready for paint!

     Sleek finish

    We used our Staalmeester Round Brush to apply two coats of Fusion Mineral Paint “Coal Black” to our piece. Fusion’s coverage is amazing and Coal Black can give you nearly one coat coverage. In this case, our piece had an open grain and absorbed the first coat, so a second was needed to give us full coverage.

    After our paint had dried, we applied Fusion Beeswax Finish and buffed it out for a beautiful satin finish. This deco vanity has a whole new modern look now!

    You can glamorize art deco pieces like this simply by adding upscale hardware and some fun accents like a faux-fur upholstered bench we painted to match.

    Projects like this are made simple when using our high-quality Fusion Mineral Paint products. The transformation of this deco desk is amazing when you consider how much time and money was saved by using Fusion. We were able to completely makeover this piece in just a couple of hours while using minimal supplies. It is something anyone can do!

     We will never look at Art Deco pieces the same again now that we know what a little Fusion can do! We’d love to see your painted Art deco pieces!
