Repurposed Magazine Rack Using Colorantic



First I sprayed on the Colorantic cleaner and varnish remover. Waited a few minutes and wiped down with a cotton cloth. This cleans and removes some of the varnish and creates a nice painting surface without sanding.

Next I picked my color. I knew I was going to use some transfers of lemons so I liked the "Exotic Margarita" because it matched the transfers color scheme.





To make it look more aged I added Colorantic Antique Brown Wax to it in various areas to give it a worn/aged look, I brush it on lightly and rub off with a soft cotton rag. You can add back if you take off too much or rub off more if you want. I didn't wax everywhere just here and there.

Next I used a Colorantic clear coat and applied it all over with a sponge to seal in transfers and to protect the finish.

It went through the inspection area and was approved for photos.

I loved doing this project as it was so easy and quick and had a whole new look when I was done. This repurposed magazine rack can now be used for holding baking trays, liquor or wine bottles towels or files. With or without the bow.



Hope you enjoyed!
