How to I "paint" oak veneer furniture? Want to do at least 2 night tables from a dated set, and if all goes well, tackle the armoire and headboard. - And to that, what is the best paint colour that's similiar to Loblaws' line, and/or a nice espresso finish. I guess now's a good time as any for suggestions on the best "blue" wall colour as well...
Thanks everyone...

Thanks for replying Inglewood...
I've looked at CC-818 Early Morning, and I do like CC-816 Athabaska, but wonder if that's too light. I do like the idea of grey undertones I guess, but also what would look great as a backdrop to the "Black Bean" furniture...
Thanks again!

BM Black Bean Soup (don't have the number handy) is the espresso colour you are looking for.

For blues: do you want a gray blue, light blue, mid toned blue, dark blue? Let us know.....there are tons of blue favourites on this forum
