My favorite paint colors for furniture makeovers

Hi, I’m Meg and I have a furniture painting addiction.

That’s no secret.

I get questions on my favorite paint colors for different pieces so thought I’d put them allllll together in one post so you guys can easily see the pretty colors!

This post is also a good reminder that photography is something that improves over time and takes practice! You can tell which projects are a bit older. 🙂 (My favorite photography resources are listed here if it’s something you want to work on, too!)
