(16) Pedestal.white.lacquer.table This 2-tiered 1940s pedestal table illustrates an example of original lacquered painted furniture, being posted here in order to help dispel the popular myth that it is 'bad' to paint furniture. Throughout history, furniture has always been painted first and most commonly. The wood finishes that people are accustomed to today evolved over the last 250 years and were originally a luxury for the rich and elite. As long as the paint is appropriate and done well, it will enhance the value and desirability of a piece. Pieces with a good lacquer or oil-based painted finish of factory quality are more scarce in today's market than woodtone finishes, and therefore have better sale potential. The worst harm comes to furniture that has been painted poorly with latex wallpaint by an ameteur, and this is where painted furniture gets its bad name in popular culture. Handcrafted Oak Boxes with Milk Paint This is a project I've been researching lately. I wanted to create my own formula for an old style of paint using milk and lime as a binder. This predates modern latex paints and was used in many early American pieces. I found a number of references to Shaker pieces which were finished with milk paint. The basic formula is pretty simple and after a few tries, I was able to mix up a durable base which worked well to recreate some old style traditional colors. This is a fairly authentic recreation of a traditional colonial furniture finish. painting furniture with latex paint Liquid Latex Fashions manufactures liquid latex body paint in a variety of colors, these body paints are made with the highest quality of FDA approved ingredients.
