The primer dried quite fast. \u00a0My excitement overcame me and the BLACK paint soon covered my furniture. \u00a0I used a foam roller and foam brush. \u00a0You know, the ones from any craft store for under a dollar?[envira-gallery id=&#8221;3528&#8243;] It is really humid this week in Oklahoma. \u00a0Drying time lasted forever and when it dried, I did not like it. \u00a0The paint was not black enough. \u00a0Can you believe that&#8217;s a thing? \u00a0Not black enough! \u00a0More painting research determined Lucy&#8217;s Sewing Lab required GLOSS paint. \u00a0Not just gloss paint, but high gloss paint! \u00a0I think at this point I started going into an OCD coma because I was obsessed with finding the perfect paint for this furniture. \u00a0Mainly, I think exhaustion played a major role. I wanted this furniture finished, yesterday! I had a driving force. \u00a0I could not sew anything until this furniture dried. \u00a0We love our fabrics! \u00a0Black glossy paint on my fabrics? \u00a0Not. Going to.
