The three pictures above are "Before" pictures of the nightstand with the first coat of finish remover. You paint it on and scrape it off...kind of a gooey, messy procedure, however, I was out on the back patio so it was fine.
Step 2 is "whitewashing the pieces with a watered-down off white paint. Once it is dry, then you sand the edges of the top and drawers to give it an 'older' look, with a fine grit sandpaper.
Step 3 is another coat of whitewash and once it is dry then you do a little more sanding. I used some of the brown furniture oil that you get to "hide scratches" and wiped that over the surfaces to give it an "older look". Once that is dry, Step 4 you spray paint a couple of coats of clear polyurethane to protect the finish and keep it from yellowing.
Step 5 is the FINISHED PRODUCT. I'm please with it! :)
