Sideboard
Gold spray paint
White furniture paint
Small paint roller
Scallop stencil

1. Paint the sideboard

Detach the doors and feet from the sideboard and put to one side. Paint the sideboard white using furniture paint and a paint roller. The paint roller will achieve a more even finish than a brush.

2. Paint the doors

The next step is to move on to the doors. Remove the handles, then paint in the same shade as the sideboard.

3. Add the stencil

Align the stencil on the surface of the door and temporary fix with a spray mount to keep it in place. Don’t worry, it won’t leave any marks behind once it’s removed.

Once you’re happy with the placement, spray with gold spray paint. Once this is dry, remove the stencil and carefully line it up aginst the edge of a completed pattern. Spray again, the continue in the same way until both doors are covered.

4. Paint the feet
