It’s One Room Challenge week 6 and the dreamy guest room officially has a pink piano! You know what? It just occurred to me that I never even explained why there is a piano in our guest room. I rearranged our living room a while back and moved the television to the nook where the piano lived. I had no other place to put it except the guest room so I just decided to make it part of the aesthetic. š
The paint color I decided to go with is Angelico by Behr. It’s just the right amount of pink. I also decided to use a new enamel paint instead of my go-to Valspar cabinet and furniture enamel. I’ve heard good things about the Benjamin Moore Advance Alkyd so I just had to give it a try. My first impression was that it seems very low odor, which I appreciate. It also sprays like a dream.
I had to create a makeshift paint booth to spray the piano and it worked really well! I taped off the keys and feet and wheels of the piano so no overspray got on them.
I also polished the knobs and feet with Barkeepers Friend. I had no idea it removed tarnish so easily.
Iām in love with how this painted piano turned out!! It looks so much better than before with all the scratches and water marks. It had definitely seen better days.
I also had time to stain the bed with the white stain/golden oak combo. I love how it turned out! Now I just have to apply some poly.
The wallpaper is here and I cannot wait to get it up. I think it will really tie everything together. Stay tuned for that during week 7! We are almost there!
