Tasmin,

I had kitchen units spray painted cream by company in Harolds Cross (just across the road from the church) on the main Harols Cross Rd. - they may be able to help you out if you were interested in getting someone else to do it - they are not expensive either

hi,


Just a thought but if you sanded it making it rough to paint on & hold the paint then paint it one shade of cream & maybe darker in the shade you want the distressed to appear the most. Note: you'd paint the darker shade on over the lighter shade while it's still wet, that way you can blend them together in the areas you most want to appear distressed.
