I just love that feeling of excitement when I'm about to paint a piece of furniture. I used to just jump right in and start painting without doing any prep work! I'm telling you, that used to drive my husband crazy! SO let's talk dirty . . .
It is soooooo important to clean EVERYTHING before you start! What happens if you don't?
You're setting yourself up for failure! If you paint over dirt or dust, eventually that area the paint will peel off. Your paint needs something to hold on to. And it will leave the surface bumpy. I'm telling you a smooth surface looks great and feels great! So have patience, and clean that furniture!
I use soap, water and paper towels. One more thing, make sure it is completely dry everywhere before painting ;)
