I’ve been working on refurbishing some Barbie furniture for a friend. I finished the first two pieces today. I used FolkArt multi-surface craft paint. I first painted everything white to get a solid base. While the paint is thin, it adheres well to plastic, and having a white undercoat allowed the brush strokes of the brown paint to appear as wood grain. Then I used FolkArt Treasure Gold as an accent.
