I'm glad you like the color, I do too! ...Cathy,<br />I'm glad you like the color, I do too! The color that shows up in the pictures is way brighter/more blue that it is in real life. I would share the paint details with you, but I got it at Habitat for Humanity. It is by Comex, I believe it is a Parker Paint brand. I think that may be a paint store only in this area, but I am not sure. It was an OOPS paint, but there is no label that says the name. The finish is eggshell, and I waxed it with SC Johnson Paste Wax, which it why it looks matte and not shiny. It is a dark blue with some grey undertones. I know this is not very helpful, wish I could give you the exact color.<br />Reeves @ The Weathered Doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17073986715762472162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4306823404611171571.post-78913419366526134472012-12-12T20:08:14.548-08:002012-12-12T20:08:14.548-08:00Thanks!

I have seen people paint laminate and it turn out great, as long as it was sanded and primed so the paint would adhere. I also did another, smaller campaign dresser that had a white laminate top. I just painted the frame white so it would blend in with the top and painted the drawers a grey-ish color. You can check it out in this post http://theweathereddoor.blogspot.com/2012/10/thrift-store-campaign-dresser.html I would love to see what you do with the pieces you have! You should send me am email with pictures when they are finished :)<br />Reeves @ The Weathered Doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17073986715762472162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4306823404611171571.post-10248474349130631032012-12-12T19:49:35.253-08:002012-12-12T19:49:35.253-08:00Reeves, what a beautiful transformation!

I'm loving my first visit to your blog after finding you here http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/before-after-refinishing-a-mcm-dresserthe-weathered-door-181503 . Your work is amazing!!<br /><br />I am especially intrigued by your work on campaign furniture since I own several pieces ... plan to sell a few & possibly paint those that I keep. My heart skips a beat when I see how popular it seems to be these days on interior design sites, etc. It's sleek, simple lines have kept it relevant, versatile & in-style. Memories of shopping for it with my parents as a teenager bring smiles to my face ... what a wonderful bedroom set. It was such a blessing that has brought me joy as a teenager & as an adult with my own family joy for a few decades. It is white with silver metal hardware, solid wood with white laminate. As an empty-nester, a few of the pieces may be sold. Hmmm, I am officially intrigued & inspired by beautiful reinventions like yours that keep seeing online ... until recently, I didn't realize that the laminate surface could be painted successfully. Perhaps, I will try it myself.kdw4jchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16363965565049648928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4306823404611171571.post-13021376006440801052012-12-12T15:26:47.936-08:002012-12-12T15:26:47.936-08:00Hi,
