Add some impact with turquoise blue paint, stain and a few tricks of the trade!
in this video I use the term "white wood" this doesn't mean white painted wood, it simply refers to the species of wood such as fir / pine / spruce etc that are white in colour.
This effect needs to be completed on bare wood - either a new build piece or a complete stripped down item.
You can use the brushing technique over a previously stained item of furniture - however you will need to degloss the existing clearcoat that's on there by wiping it over with some TSP or Similar.
