With this nightstand, I sanded, primed with Rustoleum primer and then I did a coat of espresso spray paint. I didn’t love the espresso color, but I intended to sand through the top coat enough to show it through a little. Then, I did another coat of light blue spray paint. I sanded and distressed that coat. I also, painted a white chevron pattern on the top of the dresser (tutorial). I then sanded everything again and then did a light whitewash over the whole thing.  I also spray the hardware with a nickel finish. (spray paint)
