Yay! Purdy Paintbrush Giveaway

By Kate Riley September 2, 2011

Hey all, thanks so much for all of your commentary on the “Should You or Shouldn’t You Paint” post from yesterday.  I love reading all of your opinions and personal experiences, and it seems there are so many of us with a passion for revamping old things with paint.  So how timely is this weekend’s giveaway?  Very. 

Y’all know I loooooove Purdy brushes, they’re the best!  I’ve got a dozen or so sitting in my DIY closet and consider them an essential tool for any DIYer, from novice to pro. 

Do you wanna know what my favorite thing is about Purdy brushes?  It’s simple.  You’ll never find a fiber or hair in your paint with a Purdy.  Yes, they cost a few dollars more, but they’re worth it for two reasons.  You avoid the headache of picking paintbrush fibers or hairs out of your fresh wet paint (that stinks), and they last a very long time if you take care of them and clean them properly.

    Our next painting project isn’t set in stone yet, but it’s between the laundry room, the kitchen, or the family room. I’m itching for a change in each room. As for small projects, that would be the headboards from the 70s I have for the boys once we are ready to have them share a room.

  92. OoooOOOoooh! I’d love to win. I just got my old bedroom set from my Momma! It’s from… eh, 1993. White-ish, a little beaten up, but nothing a good sanding and an awesome paint job couldn’t fix! :) Here’s to hoping! :)

  132. I just got a bookshelf for free and it is ugly…so I am looking forward to painting that piece! Thanks!

    Would love to win these brushes! Have heard great things about them.

  152. My next project would be painting the vanity in the master bath. These brushes would come in handy!

  153. I am an evangelist of Purdy brushes. I loaned some out to friends for a project and you would have thought I was loaning them one of my children … “now, only dip the paint HALF way up the brush, rinse them out immediately and use the bristle comb …” I am about to paint my living room, kitchen and my daughter’s room, including a craigslist find sewing table I’m refinishing for her first sewing machine that I got her as a birthday gift. Would LOVE a set of brushes!

  154. Wow – just what I need….I am embarking on painting my dining room table and chairs!

  155. What a great giveaway! I am just embarking on an overhaul of my downstairs- these would be a huge help!

  156. My project .. I shall call my 1st .. I am new to the diy world. I am planning on painting a frame and attached chicken wire to make me a chicken wire memo board … it looks easy enough .. something easy for my 1st project :)

  157. Ooooh, awesome! We are about to undertake painting both the master bedroom and master bathroom. Both are darker colors and I am craving more grayish-blue, lighter and more tranquil colors. Thanks for the amazing opportunity to snag some fantastic loot. :)

  158. Now that I finished painting my dining table and chairs, I’m going to be painting the shelves in my bedroom and the dresser that we converted into shelves (works a lot better than drawers that constantly fall off the track!

  159. Great timing! The boyfriend and I are just beginning to refinish a piece of my mom’s for the office. It would be beyond fab to have some Purdy brushes for the paint job (the color has not yet been chosen). Thanks for the opportunity!

  160. my next painting project is my son’s desk. I picked a colour from a sample and painted the desk in the garage. Big mistake. When I put it in his room the colour was all wrong…completely wrong. So now I have to do redo it all over again. Learnt a big lesson to look at a large sample in the room before painting an entire piece of furniture. Thanks for the great giveaway. I agree a good brush is so important!

  161. Ooooh! I LOVE my Purdy brushes. I now have 2. One is pink, and that keeps my husbands hands off :) My next painting project is a small cabinet in my craft room. It will be going from oak (laminate) to a fresh white. Thanks for the chance to win!

  162. I am currently painting my white counter tops AND using Purdy brushes! It’s the ONLY brand I buy! I always need more!

  163. We are just a few months into our new house. Still need to paint one bathroom and some bathroom cabinets. Then the fun can begin with painting bookshelves, toy box, etc. Thanks for the giveaway!

  164. My next painting project is working on a wood chair I recently inherited that my great-grandfather built. Its spindles and beautiful seat are itching for some dark red paint, I just know it. :)

  165. I LOVE Purdy brushes. They are all I will use anymore EVER. My next project(s) is to tackle a few props I bought for my newborn shoots. :)

  166. I will be painting my office and redoing a wood dresser for the first time. I’m so excited and could definitely use these brushes.

  167. This is a great giveaway. My next project is to find a thrifted dresser for my bedroom and paint it. I would love a nice curvy piece with deep drawers. Fingers crossed! :-)

  168. This would be great! My next painting project will be a big one…our entire house! Moving in to a new house soon and the previous owner had an…interesting style regarding paint colors.

  169. I’m soon painting my 5 year old son’s dresser “yukon gold” … his request! Would love some Purdy brushes!

  170. Purdy’s the best. I’m painting our front door next. Or maybe the kids’ bathroom. Or maybe the kitchen.

  171. I have one Purdy brush and I love it! My next painting project will be to paint these dining chairs that we picked up from craigslist!

  172. My next project will be refinishing/repainting a buffet for our son who is due in November. I got it on Craigslist for $20 and have been putting off refinishing it for a month now. It’s my first big piece and I’m torn on color! It’s already been painted white so I’m stuck – do I slap a fresh coat of white primer and paint on it or do I do something wild like green or bright blue?

    Oh, and I”m in my third trimester so energy is hard to come by right now. :)

  173. My next project will be refinishing/repainting a buffet for our son who is due in November. I got it on Craigslist for $20 and have been putting off refinishing it for a month now. It’s my first big piece and I’m torn on color! It’s already been painted white so I’m stuck – do I slap a fresh coat of white primer and paint on it or do I do something wild like green or bright blue?

    Oh, and I”m in my third trimester so energy is hard to come by right now. :)

  174. Since we painted the living and dining rooms, the color in the kitchen no longer works. At all. So the kitchen is next!

  175. My next project is repainting a china cabinet I just got done painting! I decided even though I loved the color, it just didn’t go well with the rest of my house. So, I am biting the bullet and re-doing it. It’s that, or repaint my entire house!

  176. I’m actually going to do re-finish my new coffee table I found at a thrift store yesterday this weekend. And then I bought a sander. And paint. I’ve been so inspired by your site that I want to try it too! :)

  177. Oh my goodness! I could soooo use these! I’m always working on some project or another, but I’m seriously contemplating redoing my kitchen cabinets, and obviously a good set of brushes would be fantastic.
    Thanks for hosting this giveaway!
    -Molly

  178. I’m refinishing a dresser!!! Your style galleries have inspired me! These would be great for all the little projects now floating through my mind.

  179. I have to go up and paint the cabinets in my kids bathroom where the laminate has all peeled off. Purdy paintbrushes make the job soooo much more pleasant—I love them!

  180. I have a lot of painting projects planned, but first up is my bathroom cabinets! They are dingy!

  181. I’m making over a chair… and kind of ruined my paintbrush on my last project from not cleaning it well enough, so I could use some new ones!

  182. i too am a fan of purdy paint brushes, thery’re the only brand i use. as a matter of fact i’m heading to my garage to start on a small french prov. chest

  183. What am I not painting? haha! We just got rid of our drop ceilings in all rooms of the house (YAY!) And now we have four ceilings to paint, plus walls, plus trim. I could use some more brushes =)

  184. My next painting project is to refinish the wall of my half-bath. They have two layers of peeling wall paper, with paint on top, tons of nail holes. So far, I’ve applied a coat of Guarz (problem surface sealant), and puttied all the holes. the next step is to apply some wall texture then PAINT! I will be so nice when this room doesn’t look like a tornado hit it anymore.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  185. I would love to win these brushes! They are indeed the best and I don’t have some of those sizes!

  186. I found a small end table at the closest Goodwill that needs a fresh coat of paint before it can proudly take the place of the boxes I stacked on top of each other.

  187. Where do I begin?! Painting my mudroom, whitewashing a table, painting a dresser and an end table. So much for rest for the weary on Labor Day!

  188. Over Labor Day weekend I plan on painting trim in our new condo and painting a secretary desk – (an idea I got from CG!) thanks for the giveaway.

  189. I will painting our basement and then a few random things such as trim and touch up work

  190. literally, MY WHOLE HOUSE! seriously… coming up this fall we need to start painting. none of my walls have paint on them beside the junky builders grade paint. eeek! =)
    also i have to stain some vintage furniture we bought… sure could use these brushes!! ;)

  191. My next painting project will be our office – lots of cutting in! These brushes would be perfect. Thanks!

  192. I’m on the lookout for a dresser to paint for our bedrrom. I already painted the walls and completly agree that the only brush to use is a Purdy one

  193. I have a wooden bench on my front porch that I am planning to refinish and paint black. These would be perfect! Thanks for the chance to win.

  194. My next painting project is my dining room chairs! They’re currently a very ugly orange colored wood with speckles of paint, and restaining isn’t an option as the middle ornamental piece is plastic (classy no?), so paint it is!

  195. I have had a dining table for a while now (I actually asked for your advice back in March). It got hot very early down here in Texas! As soon as that fall weather hits, I will be painting away! I also have a sideboard that I have been wanting to freshen up with some peacock blue maybe!!

  196. Hopefully it will be the bathroom of the house we have an offer in on (our first place!). But if that falls though maybe our landlord will let me re-paint the ugly front door of our rental.

  197. Thanks! My next painting project will probably be the dining room – it’s way past due!

  198. My mom and I are helping my aunt completely redo her bedroom! We’ve got a wooden lamp and a side table we’ll be working on this weekend, and a lot more to come after that!

  199. um . . . my living room walls, the armoire that has been in my garage for months, or the corner desk that my son has been begging me do redo for the last year. Probably my walls will get done first because it’s to hot to work outside on the others.

  200. I love Purdy brushes–I always use them! I have a huge list of paint projects to tackle this fall, but I’m starting with my son’s room. He’s outgrown his “baby” room and wants it to look older. He’s 8, so I guess he’s old enough to be considered a big boy! :)

  201. My master bedroom! I’m so tired of it! We haven’t done anything to it since we moved in 4 years ago. It’s time for a change!

  202. My next project is to repaint our bathroom vanity counter. We have a strange little house in which nothing fits today’s products. When we tried to replace our counter top years ago, we found it is at the most 2/3 the size deep as today’s counter tops! I painted it then and I’m going to do it again! I love purdy brushes. They stand the test of time and they load, hold and release the paint evenly and easily.

  203. Oh I LOVE my Purdy paint brushes! I have a couple but it’s time for some new ones! I am trying to find an old buffet to paint black to put in our dining to store craft project supplies for the kiddos. And I’m currently painting the interior of our home. I love, love, love to paint!!

  204. Great timing. I’m about to start (maybe) repainting a table that I decided to spray paint in 110 degree weather, which turned out awful! Thanks for the chance.

  205. My dining room needs to be painted. Love Purdy paint brushes they feel great in your hands!

  206. I have THREE projects on hold because the paint brushes that I chose were horrible!!!
    1. Done priming and sanding, now painting a Twin bed frame, head & foot board a crisp white for my youngest daughter
    2. Done priming, still have to sand and then painting a bookcase for my eldest daughter’s room
    3. Transforming a crib into a chalkboard table/workstation for my daycare darlings like: http://alittlelearningfortwo.blogspot.com/2011/08/repurposed-cot.html?spref=fb

    I “shared” this link on my FB page.

    Thanks!!

  207. Yay! I’m currently pulling about 50 decorative nails from a table I got on Craigslist. Then I have to remove some glued down canvas. THEN I can sand and paint it. Thanks for the giveaway.

  208. We are picking up 2 nightstands for our bedroom this weekend and they definitely need a new paint job!

  209. Love your blog!

    I will be painting my bathroom next, – the bath needs to go from primer to yellow – to continue the color up the wall of the yellow and black vintage 50s tile. I would do grey for a total wow look – but the neighbors behind me did and far be it from me to steal their thunder.

  210. I’m currently repainting the ENTIRE house! Hallways, kitchen, living room, breakfast room, entry. Just about everything is getting a fresh new look. This would help!

  211. The entire interior of my house. Or at least the family room, dining room, living room, master bath, 2 of the boys’ rooms.

  212. I’m not sure what I’ll be painting next, but I’m planning to stain some outdoor rockers next week. Does that count?

  213. We’re repainting the ‘neutral’ color of our entire house! The previous owners had painted every single wall a sort of yellowish cream color, and we’re redoing it all in a lovely pale gray. Lots of painting ahead, I’d love to win a set of these brushes!

  214. I would love to win one of those brush sets……they’ll make my projects so purdy!!! My next project is a sideboard that has been sitting in my kitchen forevvaaa….need to get it done so I can sell it.

  215. Actually, I have several pieces of furniture that will be getting painted as soon as our Florida temps drop a few degrees. Probably the first one I tackle will be a “wood” settee style bench I’m using in the bedroom.

    Thanks for the opportunity to win! I love Purdy brushes. I just have one and I guard it with my life! :)

  216. oh – i could sooo use this!! i am going to re=paint my cabinets and i am soo scared!! :)

  217. I Love these brushes! I have mine hid in a secret spot so my husband can’t find it. He is horrible with brushes. Never cleans them properly! I would love to have more than my one.

  218. Doors & trim!! The Purdy brush I bought several months ago has won my heart – so a few more would certainly make me a happy, happy girl!!

  219. I have a project I am very nervous to start! I bought 2 vintage chairs off craigs list and and planning on painting them black with Annie Sloan Chalk paint. It is my first ever chalk paint experience! I love these chairs so much, I don’t want to screw them up!

  220. I’ve been wanting some Purdy brushes! My next project is a neat piece of furniture I got from Craigslist. I am painting it black and then adding a white bird on a branch that goes on the right front door around to the right side of the piece. This will go in my sunroom as a side table.

  221. I’ve never had a purdy brush – looking forward to it.
    Am currently painting furniture, and also stripping and polyeurathaning (is this a word) an old cedar chest.

  222. I have an inherited dresser that has already been painted white. I’m going to paint it red red for my son’s room. I can’t wait! Weather is cooling down. Maybe this weekend!

  223. YAY is right…I love me some Purdy brishes- they are simply the best!!! My next project…hmmm..it will most likely be this lovely little telephone table I scored at a tag sale in the spring for 2$. thanks so much!!!

  224. Lots of small projects, but the only one that requires a paintbrush is my kitchen shelving.

  225. An Old nightstand that was left in our former apartment… good bones but terrible finish!

  226. My daughter is just about ready to ditch the crib so i am pulling my childhood victorian style bedroom set out from storage and giving them a fresh coat of paint for her new bedroom.

    The question is do i go white or risk it all with a bold color?

    I’ve heard great things about Purdy Paintbrushes!

  227. Hopefully the walls of my home. We are still waiting on permits, so it may be a little while, but a girl has always got to be prepared for anything!

  228. I have a few projects on my list, the first being to repaint my son’s red room as soon as I get back from taking him back to college (I was going to do this last year but decided to be nice and give him one more year in that dark cave).

  229. I have a rocker my DoDad made for me when I was young. I am going to spruce it up with my new Purdy brushes!

  230. I would paint my cabinets in the laundry room, or my dresser in the master bedroom!!

  231. I have so many painting projects on the horizon! First up the new wood on my coffered ceiling! I LOVE purdy brushes and could use new ones! Mine are at least 10 years old.

  232. I think I might finally start a nursery for my baby boy (4 months)…. so I need to repaint the walls :)

  233. There isn’t enough room on here for my list of painting projects…but I’ve had my eye on painting my bathroom and an old end table for my guestroom.

  234. 3 rooms down and 9 to go! Next if I have my way is the master bath. If my husband gets his way the garage. I may have to give in. ;)

  235. Hopefully my next project will be an island I am going to build for my kitchen. Thanks for the giveaway.

  236. My next painting project is likely going to be my father-in-law’s old workbench that I am turning into an outdoor buffet table/potting bench.

  237. I’ve started painting on canvas, so more canvas paintings to come. I also want to repaint the mirror frame, from orange to venetian gold.

  238. My next painting project will be the bench I’m building – if I ever finish it. Currently I have pieces and sandpaper, and wood putty laying around my great room. Thanks for hosting this terrific giveaway!

  239. I would love these paint brushes! I am soon to embark on my first furniture painting project: a cool, little side table/cabinet/book holder.

  240. I have lots of paint projects lined up! Exterior of the house (just a bit of alumnimum siding) and front door, guest bedroom (ceilings, walls, AND trim!), and kitchen (ceiling, walls, trim, doors, AND cabinets)

  241. I would use the paintbrushes for my kitchen painting project…they will be perfect for all the spots around my cabinets.

  242. I am very anxious to repaint our dated oak kitchen cabinets. I want them to look just like the ones Kate redid in her guest house!

  243. I’m painting shelving for a corner in my master bedroom. I love books and beautiful bottles…they need a home. :)

  244. My next painting project is out builder-white walls. We’ve been here 3 years, and still haven’t painted. These brushes would be great for ALL the edging I’m going to be doing.

  245. My next project is to paint a natural stained cabinet black to match my new gray living room. I’m a little scared because I’ve never painted wood before, but I got a lot of advice here! Thanks!

  246. My next project needs Purdy Brushes! Two night stands painted in golden green… they’re going to look fabulous! BTW Kate, I LOVE you blog! :)

  247. These paintbrushes look great! We really need to paint our downstairs bathroom, so that’s definitely next on my list.

  248. My next project will be my dining room buffet. It has a gorgeous bow front and beading detail but has seen better days. I’m still new to painting furniture so this should be an adventure!

  249. My next painting project will a mirror for my bedroom and then a small table for my living room.

    Thanks for the giveaways!

  250. Up next for me is baby boy’s dresser. I’m thinking either navy blue or lime green–I can’t decide! Probably navy, though the lime is calling to me . . .

  251. I’m refinishing my Grandma’s old hutch and my childhood piano when they arrive in the next month or so! I will definitely be painting the hutch and re-staining the piano.

  252. Oh, if I could have given “love” to Purdy on Facebook, I would have! Instead, I “liked” them. My next painting project? The entire apartment! I’m fed up with “renter’s dingy beige” and I’m ready to rock out some paint.

  253. I just got done painting my daughter’s bed and nightstand (hand-me-downs from my grandmother) and next I will be painting her dresser (hand-me-down from my mother in law) to match. Now the bed is purple and the rest is white with purple drawers to match, which perfectly matches her room and personality. Next I will be painting my old mismatched bedroom furniture as soon as I find the perfect shade of pale yellow.

  254. What a great giveaway!!! I love Purdy paint brushes…wouldn’t use any other brand. We have quite a few paint projects waiting to be started. First off is my daughter’s bedroom.

  255. I’ve been staring at an old dresser that needs repainting, and your site has given me courage to tackle it.

  256. Oooh I just love your giveaways!!! My next paint project is my 2 wooden nightstands. I stained them about 5 years ago but they are just way toooooo dark!! Need to lighten them up with some fresh white paint…I think I’m going to try Annie Sloan’s chalk paint…can’t wait!!! Hopefully I’ll have some nice new Purdy’s too!!! Thanks Kate!

  257. My next painting project will be the baseboards in the nursery (already did the walls). The brushes would be great for that!

  258. I LOVE my Purdy brushes! Next painting project is the entire basement, and a a few tables to go in it, and these would come in handy!

    Thanks for the chance to win these!!!

  259. Will be painting 2 large thrift store medallions to go over a bed. Love your projects!

  260. As for my next projects. I have many, I am in the middle of stripping and repainting interior doors, I have a front door to do too. I have 5 chairs to refinish and a cabinet to go from wood to painted. thats all I can think of right now that involves paint but there is much more going on. Just bought a house!

  261. Finished painting our bedroom a week ago….three more big rooms and 2 hallways to go. Makes me tired thinking of all of the work :)

  262. I have so many painting projects lined up right now (we just bought our first house), but the next in line is a couple chairs for my craft room. I love Purdy brushes!

  263. I wish that my next painting project would be to paint all the rooms in our house…. I will have to settle with only painting the trims for a new window and a new door frame.

  264. getting ready to paint my kitchen cabinets. would love to win these. they are the best!!!

  265. Oh these would be so helpful for a noob like me! :) My project this weekend is to take a red metal drawer unit to white…wish me luck!

  266. My next painting project is actually a project I started and then stopped because it was so messy and time consuming (working 40+ hrs a week doens’t leave much me/project time). I’ve started taking all of the original doors in our home off their hinges and stripping the 5+ layers of paint so that I have a fresh start to paint them all the same and replace all the hardware. It’s been a long slow process but I can’t wait until they’re done!

  267. We just bought a new house, so I have LOTS of painting projects on my horizon. This weekend I’m hoping to tackle a guest room and the dining room. Next weekend will hopefully be the master bedroom.

  268. I want to get another chance for the Purdy brushes, so I am posting and leaving a comment. Thanks..

  269. My next project is my hutch & buffet. It’s going from it’s long time brown color to a nice creamy white.

  270. I need to touch up my dining room soon. I love Purdy brushes. IMO, there isn’t a better brand.

  271. I have a bunch of current projects so this is perfect! Entry walls, stairway walls, plant stands, etc. Thanks for the chance!

  272. Just bought some chairs I’m itching to paint! A new brush that doesn’t leave hairs — Heaven!!

  273. I’ve always heard wonderful things about purdy paintbrushes, but have never tried them. I will be tackling out master bedroom in the next month or so, these would help tremendously!

  274. Ooo…I have no idea what my next project will be but because I’m an art major, I’m SURE I’ll use them at some point!

  275. I love Purdy brushes! The next project? Maybe one of the two children’s’ rocking chairs, floating shelves for the laundry room, shelves for the grandkids’ room, or the kids’ folding step stool…so hard to choose!

  276. Our next paint project – the kitchen. It’s large and those Purdy brushes will come in handy when it comes to cutting. :-)

  277. We are building our new home, so I’m sure there will be many painting opportunities which I would love new paintbrushes.

  278. My next project is probably going to be a long dresser I have in our room. It is just a bad color of wood and it needs help!

  279. My next project will be finding a console table to paint for my entryway. I could use some good new brushes. Thanks for the chance to win!

  280. I have nesting tables to paint – that Purdy brush would come in handy!

  281. I love Purdy brushes! I just got my first stock of Annie Sloan paint so after this weekend, I may have painted everything in my house :)

  282. My friend just got a new house and they’re just starting a family and have a small budget. I’m helping her paint a table and chair set we got for $10. I’ve never had a Purdy brush and I would love to win this. :D

  283. I am painting a dresser red for my babies red and a hutch red for the kitchen. I have a thing for red. . .

  284. My next painting project will be to change the color of my front door. Have been reading a lo about Purdy brushes lately and was going to give them a try. Count me in for a chance to win them — woo hoo!!

  285. I’m working up the courage to paint my kitchen cabinets now that the kiddos are back in school.

  286. Our guest bath needs a bit of a makeover so I thought I’d try my hand at the bathroom cabinets. I’m hoping to complete this before the holidays so that our geusts can have a “refreshed” bathoom to use! Happy holiday weekend to you, Kate! Thanks for the chance on your giveaway.

  287. I’m buying my first house and my next painting project is the living room. Sooo excited!

  288. Yikes… lots of “next” projects to paint, but I would say first on my list should be my office walls/trim!

  289. Purdy paint brushes are the only ones that I use! My dad bought my first one for me, as he is very particular about painting supplies. I must have inherited his painting gene, because he’ll let me work on a paint project with him, but not my brother!

  290. my next paint project may just be something involving chalkboard paint! i love chalkboard paint!

  291. My next project is going to be stripping and then repainting an older dresser that belongs to my boyfriend. Years ago, his mom painted it a hideous bright blue color that needs to go! I’m thinking something in a warm chocolatey color with new fixtures will make it better.

  292. The next paint job is the master bedroom since we already bought the paint, but then we still need to paint 2 bedrooms and bathrooms. Don’t tell DH, but I kind of want to repaint the living room now, too.

  293. I think my next painting project is going to be a side table I just recently finished. The color didn’t turn out how I was hoping so I think I am ready to go at it again.

  294. My next project will be repainting my daughter’s bedroom from white to grey and stenciling over a dark blue stripe border.

  295. Next project-cutting in my master bathroom. We recently moved to a ranch home and have painted every room. I hate my paint brushes with a passion and have had the problem with picking out the bristles. I try to keep everything on a budget and always see those pretty purdys but just can’t bite the bullet and spend that kind of money on a single paintbrush. Would love to win and try these out!!!

  296. We just bought a new home, what am I not going to paint? I am most excited thinking about painting some old furniture.

  297. We are about to move and the house is a fixer upper… So I will be painting cabinets, walls, trim, doors, and re-doing some of our existing furniture like our coffee table!

  298. My next project is turning a spare bedroom into an office/craft room. I am looking for re-do furniture at our local Goodwill and Miracle Hill stores.

  299. Yay! Up next are some frames and a small end table! I only have one brush and it’s not the greatest so these would be a fantastic addition to the projects!

  300. Hi, I”m painting all the dark varnished stain in our new house ~ from the 70’s …currently working on a pantry & the ugly trim around the door!

  301. I’ve got so many things to paint it’s unreal! We’re in the middle of remodeling, so we’ve got entire rooms (and their furnishings) to paint!

  302. I am currently pregnant and wanting so bad to paint a dresser for the new baby on th the way.

  303. I plan to paint this antique bedside table I inherited from my great grandma. Either a nice crisp white or pale grey-blue color. I think I will add a cute jeweled knob from Anthropology to give it some glam!
    LOVE your blog btw! You are so talented :)

  304. Paint the trim in the hallway. Prime and paint two bathrooms and repaint the master bedroom.

    Thank you for the giveaway!

    Teresa T.

  305. I’m in the process of picking out a color to paint my living room,
    entry way and dining room.

  306. I love your post. Just discovered it a week ago and you inspired me to paint an old chest of drawers and two night stands!

  307. I plan to paint a dresser that was handed down to me from my aunt and I also plan to help my parents upgrade the kitchen on a house they just bought by helping them paint the walls and cabinets. So excited!

  308. Next project for us is to paint a six drawer dresser that we picked up at a garage sale months ago. I’d like to do gradient tones on the drawers. I hope to win!

  309. I’ve been wanting to repaint some end tables to give them a new look. Would love some new brushes!

  310. i need to paint the hideous, dated 70’s dark brown trim in my hallway, and the dark brown paneled doors as well. just finished painting my bathroom! i do like a good paint job!

  311. My next project will be a chair for my bedroom. It is waiting for me in my garage. Those brushes sure would come in handy. I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks.

  312. I picked up an antique dresser for free at a curb alert. It’s just screaming for some lovely paint, with some Purdy brushes!

  313. We are going to paint a lot of our old furniture for the new apartment (desk, side tables…).

  314. I’m currently painting our craigslist dresser to a fresh white. Only after scouring your blog for ideas of course!

  315. I just liked Purdy on FB, under the name “Sally Daffodil”. Thanks for the chance to win.

  316. We are looking to paint some serious baseboards – as in the entire house! Whew! I am tired already!

  317. I am currently painting a bed for my daughter. I love these brushes! They are worth the extra money. I have been routinely using the same brush for the last 11 years. No joke. It’s almost as good as new.

  318. I am currently painting all the trim wood in my home Valspar high def “cloth”. I have already done my daughter’s room and upstairs hall bath. I too enjoy DIY projects and look forward to checking out your blog everyday when I come home from work I am a nurse and find painting relaxing and DIY projects fun. I love HGTV too. I have tried many brushes, and yes picking out fibers is “yucky”. I would love to win those brushes. Now that “Irene” has blown past, power is back and our damage minimal, I can get back to work.

  319. I just scored a beautiful 6 piece antique bedroom set on Craigslist for only $75. I’m painting it creamy white and it already looks so much better. I’d love to win a Purdy set of brushes to finish the job!

  320. I have a few projects that I will be starting in the near future that will involve a lot of painting, so new brushes would be VERY helpful!

  373. Well I did it… I picked up my FIRST project today after salivating over your blog! It’s not as if I dont have ENOUGH to do since Im homeschooling my 2 older girls in a few days, but I figured I would include them in this and maybe encourage a creativity in them they never knew was there.

Next on the list is the dining room which has crown molding and chair rail. My house has stained trim (built in “74) so I’m sanding it and painting all trim white. Big job, but big results.

  437. In two weeks, we will be moving into a big old house and just about everything needs to be painted!

  438. My daughter just left for college and I am going to surprise her when she comes home with a room makeover. When looking for ideas online, I came across CG for the first time and I think it’s awesome. I will be making the upholstered headboard, but first up is painting her dresser and nightstand a sophisticated off-white and updating the hardware. Last time I painted it (15 yrs. ago) I sponged it pink and blue – she’s ready for an update! I would love to have new brushes – Purdy please!

  439. What a great giveaway! I have some pretty gray paint for my bedroom – winning these brushes would be such a perfect incentive to get started!

  440. I have used (the same) Purdy brushes for years and am very picky about taking care of them. My next paint project is a vanity that I picked up at a yard sale. It would be ever-so-nice to add to my Purdy collection.

  444. My daughter is FINALLY home from college and it’s time to take her little girl room, to a grown up
    “big girls room”. We are best friends and LOVE doing painting projects together. Not only does it spruce up our little living quarters, but it give Mom and daughter so much needed bonding time together too.

    I’ve always used Purdy brushes and love the quality of not only the brush, but the way the paint glides on with them.
    Thanks!

  445. Please Please Please pick me! I’m in the middle of painting my office right now to include walls, trim, ceiling – everything!

  450. The only room in my house that I have yet to paint is my den, so that’s my next project!

  451. I have officially liked Purdy on FB. Keeping my fingers crossed I win. Living in Turkey does not afford me a plethora of shopping opportunities so this would be a nice one! :)

  452. My next paint job is the guest bathroom! I painted it a muddy brown(what WAS I thinking?)and now I shall transform it with Toasty Gray, just as soon as those Purdy brushes arrive!

  456. Just bought a new (old! 1922) home and am getting ready to tackle all the trim and woodwork. I need these Purdy brushes!!!

  458. yay, great giveaway!!! I am working on a side table for my living room right now, and when that’s done I’m going to paint the nightstands in the master bedroom, they need updating rather badly

  459. Our next painting project is the front door, trim, shutters and lights outside garage and front door.

  460. As soon as I convince my husband how wonderful the daylight basement family room will be once the walls are a lovely light tone instead of the dramatic but way too dark color we have now, we’re doing the basement walls. Any suggestions to make both ‘she’ and ‘he’ happy? The room has a kind of fishing theme going now.

  461. I also liked Purdy on facebook. Hope I win. Can’t wait to try Purdy brushes. Never have tried one before, but heard great things.

  462. So many to choose from… I guess top of the list is going to be repairing and repainting the front door surround this fall and I want to redo the guest room before we have friends come to visit in a few weeks. I better get cracking.

  463. We are adding on a new family room and are just about to the painting step so that is next. Unless I can convince my husband to take a break and help me paint some stripes on one wall of our office first!

  464. Getting ready to paint an old cabinet to put in the hall.. thinking gray

    and going to paint the trim to finish off the enclosed patio.

  465. What won’t I be painting? My husband and I just bought a house and should be moving in next weekend. Every square inch of that house needs a new coat of paint! These brushes are on my list to get. :)

  466. My next painting project SHOULD be finishing up the board and batten in our bedroom. But I’m kinda feelin’ a wild hair comin’ on for switching up our dining room walls. For the fourth time. :o)

  467. We are going to paint an old hutch we have and turn it into a wet bar for our dining room

  468. I’m going to paint my bedroom suite. Got three different colors in there right now and I want to go the same color on them. Love the giveaway, thanks.

  469. Oh what am I not about to paint or stain!?! Today, we are installing new laminate floors. After I’m positive of how the flooring coloring looks, I will confirm my paint choices for kitchen/dining/project room all connected together. And, with the encouragement from LOTS of your blogs, I’m tackling the kitchen cabinets with the Rust-oleum cabinet transformation product and contemplating the counter-tops, too! My laundry room is also connecting, so thank goodness that’s getting a make-over, too. it’s about time! I have an old armoire in my daughter’s room that is pretty atrocious and is getting a nice shiny paint job; an old vanity in my daughter’s room at my mother’s house; my mother’s 1/2 bath; my coffee table needs some good loving and a new stain; my great-grandmother’s nightstand needs attention and I now have boosted my confidence enough to paint that old sentimental wooden piece – sound familiar? :) Then.. after my spousal unit sees all my impressive improvements that are way past their time, i have no doubt he will be ready (weather having cooled enough) to replace/repaint our wooden deck. Sheesh. I just am Links to facebook and twitter

  470. I am going to paint an old, but pretty queen bedroom set that is currently a hideously knotty pine! Can’t wait to put these paintbrushes to good use.

  471. I’m painting all the stained trim in my house. I could put those brushes to very good use!

  472. I have to be honest I have no idea who Purdy is :) BUT in my defense its because I am a new DYI. Your blog has inspired me and I love reading all the entries AND thank you for getting back to my questions that I’ve asked you already.

    SOOO with that said I am tackling three painting projects. I picked up two great dressers at a yardsale for my daughter and son and one really chic victorian chair also for my daughters room ALL for the grand price of..drumroll please… $20 bucks. I hope I didn’t over pay, so new at this stuff. Goal is to sand it down, fix it up and PAINT them!! So the brushes would be a great start and with the help of your blog on “how to” I think I can do this.

    Quoting the scene from Shrek.. “ooo pick me..pick me… Thanks!

  473. Our bathroom hasn’t been painted in over 25 years. We’ve been prepping walls like madmen and I think we’re finally ready to start the painting. Some Purdy brushes would make it go on like butter!

  474. I am going to paint my bedroom including the doors and trim, so great paintbrushes would really come in handy.

  475. We just moved to a new house so pretty much everything needs painting – bedrooms, bathrooms, and the job I’m dreading – the kitchen cabinets. Having new brushes sure would make everything easier.

  476. Does it have to be paint? I’ve got a picnic table that needs to be stained again. UGH!

  477. I’m in the process of picking colors (gray – such a hard color to pick!) the small bedroom. Next up, the medium bedroom. Then, the master. Then, office. Then, hallways. Then, brick fireplace. Then… then… I don’t know yet, but I’m sure there will be something else to paint!

    BTW I too use Purdy

  478. I linked to my FB! (Actually I linked five times because I didn’t think it worked! Had to go back and delete four of them!)

  479. I can’t wait to paint an old bedroom set from the 20’s with my Annie Sloan chalk paint!
    I would love a new set of Purdy brushes to complete the project!

  480. I’m just starting some painting projects and I’m so glad I found your site! I’m starting with a corner bookshelf, but I’ve got plans for more!

    I linked to this offer on FB and liked your FB page too.

    Thanks for the tips and inspiration!

  484. I am painting my white picket fence – hoping that the weather holds out for a beautiful September in the northwest!

  485. We replace all of the old hollow interior doors with solid core paneled doors. They are still primer ewww color and seriously need some paint. I am currently refinishing and reupholstering a pair of tufted chairs and want to paint the legs high gloss creamy white. A Purdy brush would be SO helpful for this. Also want to paint an antique secretary desk a bright hue like apple green or lipstick pink.

  486. I’ve been wondering who makes a good brush, thanks for the heads up . I’m needing to tackle painting some wood furniture!

  487. Our next painting project is the dark wood bookshelf in our nursery for our baby boy who is due in November!

  490. My bible study group has actually taken on a complete house re-do for a wonderful Christian lady who is a widow. It will take time and resources. Any product that we don’t have to purchase would be a HUGE blessing.

  493. I’ve been a fan of Purdy brushes forever…they are really the best! As for our next project…my daughter just purchased her first home…basically the home is brand new…but each room is a shade darker than Builder’s Beige…so we’ll be painting…3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, a living room…and the entire exterior REAL soon.

    Thanks for the opportunity to win!

  494. I am cleaning up my workspace. I am so glad I finally started buying good brushes and cleaning them instead of getting new, cheap ones for each project. I have so many projects that it’s hard to know which one to begin, but I think I will go with a 3-drawer dresser from my Dad’s house. I am going to use BH&G “Crisp Morn” because it makes me think of buttermints. I would love to try a set of Purdy brushes. Even the name is fun. Purdy.

  495. Just “liked” Purdy on Facebook, too…………………

    tinab158 at hotmail dot com

  496. my next project includes painting our bedroom a nice relaxing shade of gray!! I already have one wide purdy brush, but could use more sizes!!

  497. I am gearing up to paint a vintage dresser & mirror combo. They are white, “french country”, and even has a plastic frame, legs, and dresser top. Thinking of going chalk paint in a 2-color scheme. I just need to make up my mind! I’ve never had Purdy brushes and wonder how they’d do with chalk paint.

  498. Purdy brushes are the best!
    I am trying to get re-motivated to finish all the public areas in my house– I re-painted the great room/ kitchen area for a big family party and haven’t gotten enthusiasm to finish the job– down the hall, etc. The worst part– I wrapped the Purdy (no lie!) brushes I was using for cutting in–wrapped them in foil and stuck them in the freezer. I left them there so long that they freeze-dried the paint to the brush :)

  499. My next painting project will be an antique chair I dug out of my parent’s basement. In the 70’s someone thought it was a good idea to paint it Pepto Bismol pink and put an olive green upholstery over the seat! But the lines and wood carving on the back are lovely so I can’t wait to get some white paint on it!

  500. Just bought my first Purdy brush this past week…and I am in LOVE! My next painting project will be an old chair I found on the side of the road…it needs some TLC and then it will be the chair for my bedroom! :)

  501. I have a side table in need of painting….oh, and a bed frame….and kitchen chairs. At least that’s where I need to start :)

  502. I love Purdy brushes. I even like the fact that the name reminds me of some old Southern hayseed who spells the way he talks. The same guy who sells “chester drawers” on craigslist. Make that “purdy chester drawers.”

  503. I would use them to paint my daughter’s louvered closet doors! Those things are a pain in the rear!!

  504. Two months after moving into our new digs and only one room painted thus far. UGH. The builder’s white has got to go!!! The paint has been purchased and is stacked carefully along the garage wall. I just need to keep my momentum going. These brushes would come in awfully handy. Hope I win!!

  505. Re-doing the washroom and would love to replace my flimsy, old foam brushes w/this sturdy, purdy set.

And I have about 19 more projects to paint from things I keep dragging home from yard sales including a dresser, a small table for my porch and a really cool buffet I want to use as an entertainment center.

  516. attempting my first furniture painting project- painting an old dresser for our bedroom!

    Thank you so much for this giveaway!

  536. My next painting project also been my painting project for the past one year is to finish up the trim in my sons room

  537. I found a dresser at the Salvation Army and I’m planning on painting it using AS chalk paint. There is also a table and four chairs there I haven’t been able to get out of my mind. It just might work at the cottage in the front porch that my husband is rebuilding.

  546. My entire house is my next painting project! We’re not only buying a new place but having it built which means everyhting comes in basic white…unless I want to pay $1000 a room to have them apinted all one solid color…not happening.

  547. I am new to painting anything…so I NEED, have to have – some Purdy brushes!! I hope to paint a desk…as soon as I find a good cheap one

  548. I love how you turn what is often common furniture into totally unique, one of a kind pieces. What a great way for us all to add our own personality to our decorating. I am excited that I am not sure what my next paint project will be. I am in the process of buying my first home! It is going to be a small, older home because that is all I can afford, but I am so excited by the possibilities. Plus I get to make it my own with paint and decorating! Not something that is easy to do when renting. I am certain my new home is going to have a lot of paint projects!

  549. my dining room table… it’s totally intimidating and i keep putting it off… but it just needs to happen :) {don’t worry, it was a goodwill find 5 years ago for 20 bucks!}

  550. I have so many projects going right now…so I can use them on all of them… maybe my grandson dresser…

  551. I adore Purdy. I guard my one lone brush (same one you have pictured) and take good care of it. I hope to use it this weekend on the quilt rack that has been sitting on my patio waiting to be finished (I won’t tell you how long it has been there!).

    Laurie in Central CA

  552. I will be using it to finish my blanket box that I made at a women’s woodworking course I took last year! How embarrassing, last year where does the time go.

  553. Decided the color I have in most of my house is too dark… So I am repainting the entire thing. Not sure how I will tackle the room with the vaulted ceilings!

  554. I have a darkwood writers desk just like the one that you painted white and distressed so i’m working on trying to get that as cute as yours turned out!

  555. I bought my first Purdy brushes a couple of months ago when I wanted to paint a bedroom. Love them and can’t wait to use them for the next room. Two rooms down and three more to go downstairs.

  556. Perfect for my bathroom remodel!!! I am painting and priming, walls & ceiling while the tile gets done… Pick me Pick me!

  557. The brushes sound great. It’s so hard to keep the walls clean w/ 2 little ones, so I need to touch up some paint on our walls in a couple rooms. Thanks!

  558. Oh, how useful these paint brushed would be for my next painting project. I’ll be painting the unpainted ceiling in my laundry room.
    Thanks!

  559. Hi!
    1st let me tell you that I am new to the “Blog” land and I absolutly LOVE reading all the info and getting inspired! While I’ve always enjoyed crafting, I’d been too intimidated to pick up a can of spray paint or a paint brush for a piece of furniture! After reading all of your tips and tricks I might have gone a little over board since I now have 4 large pieces of funiture, a chair, plant stand, oodles of jars and lids taking up a good portion of my husbands garage (all he knows about are 2 pieces of furniture since he’s been gone working 16 hours shifts restoring power to areas hit by Irene here in SE Mass) anyhoo, my 1st BIG(well, maybe not to you crafty talented folk) painting project is going to be a white laminated microwave stand that I plan on turning into a phone/fax/kitchen storage thinga-ma-jiggy.
    Thanks to yourself and a couple other DIY’er -crafty bloggers out there you’ve helped inspire me again after so many years. From your ideas, tutorials and stunning before and after pictures, to see things the way I’m wired to see them.
    Simply put, to look not only what is, but what it could be.
    Ps. Sorry for being so bloggy ;D

  560. My next painting project is adding vibrant color to my 3-year old son’s chest of drawers. After that, I’ll be painting anything I can get my hands on!

  561. I’m going to be painting my daughter’s dresser…I’ve primed it, now just awaiting some color…purdy would work nice!

  562. I am painting an end table with AS chalk paint for the first time…hope it goes well!

  563. My next project is painting the kitchen cabinets. It’s a big one and I’m very nervous!

  564. My next painting project will either be the trim in our family room and bathroom, or an old cabinet my dad salvaged for me. The cabinet sounds like more fun. :)

  567. My next project is painting a Craigslist dresser if I can get the courage to just do it! Oh, and I’m waiting on cooler weather!

  568. i will be attempting to add some color to my girls white furniture. every single piece is white. it’s just not right. something must be done and i hear purdy is the way.

  569. We inherited my grandparents home late last year and we’re painting everything. (I’m pretty sure Elvis lived here.) Purdy brushes would make the job so much easier!

  570. My next project is my hutch, that was my mother’s. It screams 70’s! I can’t wait to paint it black, destress, and update the hardware!!!

  571. My entire house needs a new coat … Ugh. Lots of work. But nothing like new paint colors to make a house your home.

  572. This fall I will be doing my family/dining area in a soft tan of some shade. I love Purdy!!!

  574. My next painting project…take your pick of rooms. We moved into a brand new home 9 months ago and since we have a 7 month old baby we haven’t gotten to any of them yet. thanks

  575. I’m working on a decorative box for my sewing room using my only Purdy brush. Next up, the kitchen!

  576. I love, love, love to paint. I absolutely hate hairs in the paint, so you’re so right about Purdy brushes. My next painting project is to paint my bathroom cabinet. I so wanted to rip it out and replace it with a piece of antique furniture with bowl sinks, but alas, not in the budget. So I am taking out the drawers to be replaced with shelves and baskets, new hardware, fake claw feet and some paint and the plain white cabinet will look like a new piece of furniture….(hopefully)

  577. Not sure how to link….but I tried and wasn’t so hard. I linked the giveaway on Twitter.

  578. And,,,finally…added like Purdy on my Facebook Page….Hope I win….sure could use some Purdy paint brushes.

    AND – ONLY use Purdy brushes…they are THE best!

  584. I have an heirloom desk (my grandfather’s) that I plan to paint. I’m scared that I’ll do it ‘wrong’ but I want to repurpose it and use it for years to come so I’m going to dive in! I’ve heard these are the best brushes to use so I hope I get picked!

  585. Our room addition is getting close to complete (after many long months of DIY angst). I’ll be painting my master bec/bath/closet! Yippeee!

  586. I am going to repaint the 1/2 bath a different color because I don’t like the first color I chose!!

  587. Thanks for this opportunity to win! I have been wanting to re-paint all my trim in my house to freshen things up a bit! But I have been avoiding it! Maybe having brand, spankin’ new -ie.CLEAN- and not yucked up with old dried paint up the whole handle ( I am sloppy) would motivate me to finally get it done!

  588. Love love! I’m going to paint my $20 dresser I got at the thrift store. It needs some lovin’!

With original bit-key locks and solid brass escutcheons intact! Only Purdy can do them justice!

  594. I LOVE angled brushes!!!! Paying a little extra for a great brush saves me the time of taping everything off. Love Purdy products!

  595. I just moved into a new house (new to me) and it all needs to be painted and then when I’m done with that, it’s on to furniture re-dos. Every little brush helps!

  627. I love Purdy brushes! My next painting project is a small shelf I got at a garage sale for $3.00. I have always hated the look of our thermostat and have wanted to disguise it but can’t cover it. So I’m going to place the shelf where the decor will catch the eye instead of the unattractive plastic cover!

I am also staining a dresser that I am turning into a TV stand, plus MANY rooms in my house waiting for some attention! My home needs a new quality paint job!
    Marcie

  630. I start painting my master bath vanity tomorrow, followed by all the trim in our house, followed by many collected pieces of furniture. Whew! I really need those Purdy brushes!

  631. I think the first painting project I need to do is my coffee table (I’m thinking a soft color, or white). Then, a table, bedroom furnishings, chairs and bookshelves? :)

  632. I’m painting my (formerly traffic cone orange) kitchen so it will be a pretty green. In fact, tomorrow I’ll be finishing up the primer coat so I’ll be done with the ugly and move on to the pretty.

  633. It is soo true about other brushes leaving marks, fibers/hairs… I loved to paint projects and for the longest time did not use a high quality brush. I thought that was as good as it gets. Yet once I found Purdy..I could not think of using anything else!

  634. I just finished up some painting projects. So hopefully my next one will be some walls in my new house followed by revamping my furniture.

  635. I am painting my dining room table and chairs. Love Purdy brushes! Thanks for the opportunity to win a few to add to my collection.

  636. I am a new reader and addicted yard-saler and you have inspired me with so many projects. I have a Bombay Co. bench that I bought for $20 that I will be painting and upholstering. I also purchased an old maple vanity for $45 that I will be painting (would love to try the pearl paint on this). Finally, a Bombay footstool that I bought fro $1 – most likely will be my first project because I wanted to choose something small to start off with!

  637. I love my Purdy brushes and could always use more. This week I’m off work and have several paint projects lined up. Dresser, end tables, coffee table, etc. etc. Oh and some horizontal stripes in loft.

  638. My next project is painting the campaign dresser I got off Craigslist. I also liked Purdy on Facebook. Thanks for the giveaway!

  639. My daughter just bought her first house, and we’ve been on a painting spree! Her mother-in-law painted their bedroom using Purdy brushes and didn’t even use painter’s tape! I was so impressed. We’ve got one more bedroom to go and two bathrooms, so these brushes would be awesome!

  640. i could not be happier if i won these brushes… i am preparing now to paint my 26 kitchen cabinets and 16 drawers!!!! also adding molding to the top of the cabinets. i am in love with purdy brushes. THANK YOU for the chance to win them!!

  641. I aim to paint my kitchen cupboards, walls, and possibly the floor. A big project, but a fun one.

  642. I just painted a dresser for my daughter’s room with a Purdy brush but could always use more! AS a matter of fact, I was lecturing my dad about his cheap paint brushes. I told him never skimp on brushes, a good brush will be your best friend!

  643. I would love to win! I am in desperate need of new paint brushes! I am planning on re-painting a dresser for our office. Thanks for sponsoring this giveaway.

  644. I am currently painting my teenage son’s desk and then I am moving on to a coffee table. Fun stuff!

  645. I LOVE Purdy brushes!!! I wish my next painting project was some fun and creative, but it will be painting trim as the result of having new flooring put down ~ so it’s at least related to something fun and new!!!!

  646. My next project is to paint two vintage kitchen chairs saved from an old beach cottage. One will be sky blue and live in the kitchen. The other will be lime green and live in my daughter’s room! Can’t wait to get started with Purdy brushes.

  647. Oh I would love to win! I definitely need some quality paintbrushes!

    My next painting project will probably be either a coffee table or a chair (I need to redo a chair I already started reupholstering.)

  648. I’m going to be painting a WHOLE bedroom set! Well, 4 pieces. A fabulous french provincial style dresser, lingerie chest and 2 nighttables I scored for a steal on Craigslist! And, the bonus is I’m painting it in the Annie Sloan Old White trimmed in Paris Grey, can’t wait!!

  649. My next paint project will be my side tables and coffe table. These paint brushes would definitely come handy!

  650. I have soooo many painting projects lined up, but the one I am most excited about is my bedroom furniture. I am going to re-stain the top and paint the body of them a cream color to match a table in my bedroom. Just need to make time for it and my room will really come together!

  651. Oh how I need me some purdy. I’ve got a great big old workbench I want to paint in some girly colors for a project center.

  652. I need to paint the biggest piece in my house. I inherit a 70’s entertainment center that needs to go from ugly to fabulous!!!
    best regards,
    Wanda

  653. I am going to finish painting my daughter’s bookcase, to match the rest of her no-longer-a-little-girl teenage bedroom.

  654. Purdy brushes are the best, I use them all the time. My next painting project is a dresser.

  655. I’m getting ready to re-do my almost 9 year old’s bedroom, so I’m going to be painting a lamp & probably a side table.

  656. Oh we have lots of painting projects planned… we just bought our first house!! I’m super excited to paint my hutch to match my dining room though!

  657. My next project is an old solid wood front door that I picked up at a yard sale a year ago and I’m FINALLY turning it into the headboard I’ve always pictured. Could really use another purdy brush for the glazing details, hint hint, nudge nudge!

  658. I’m in the middle of transforming our guest room into a nursery. There will be lots of painting involved!

  659. Thinking of selling the house and it will need to be repainted – both inside and out! Maybe when the weather cools down, the humidity goes away, and the rainy season ends we’ll get to it.

  660. I have a coffee table that I found sitting beside a dumpster. I plan to paint it a dark espresso brown and stencil a distressed looking branch with leaves across part of it.

  661. I have a dresser I bought for $15 at a yard sale to refinish for my then-baby. He is now 14. I’m going to get it done this fall. :)

  662. I’m repainting a storage bench I picked up at a thrift store. Could use these beautiful brushes!

  663. I’d love to win these =)

    If I won I’d paint our youngest son’s bedroom. I went a little lime green and chocolate brown on the kid and he deserves a second chance! =)

  664. We are painting the outside of our house, after my husband replaces all the siding. We started this weekend and the back is half finished.

  665. My next painting project is the base of my dining room pedestal table. As soon as I decide on the color!

  666. My next painting project is a desk my dad bought me several years ago, and my grandfathers stool.

  667. My next prohect is a dresser i picked up. The hubs is a painter and wont let me touch his purdy brushes!

  668. Oh… let’s see… my next painting project. Maybe it will be the double dresser I want to paint white and attach mirrors to to fronts of the drawers or the vanity I want to either paint gold or gold leaf. Or maybe it should be the two chairs I’ve had the cushions reupholstered but need to paint navy blue. Let’s just say these brushes would get a LOT of use if I won them :)

  669. I’d love these brushes. My next painting project is to turn my guest bedroom into a nursery….just found out I’m 6 weeks pregnant.

  670. I have two bathrooms and four closets to paint! My next painting project will be whichever of those strikes my fancy when I have some free time.

  671. I scrounged an aqua side table from my parents storage that I am debating between painting navy or a sage green for my new living room.

  672. we’re painting out kitchen cabinets (wood paneling currently) we need all the help we can get with supplies! these look awesome for tight corners :)

  673. I think its time to paint one of our bathrooms. I’m done with the green color in there!

  674. I’m actively searching for a bureau/buffet/hutch for my dining room and these brushes would help me turn it into a statement piece. I’m thinking either a bright blue or turquoise.

  675. Ooh, I have one purdy brush that I love for trim work! My next painting project is my studio. After the drywall is done the whole room is getting painted. I just have to decide on the color first…

  676. I am in the middle of painting all interior rooms in my house one by one, I would love to have a new set of Purdy’s, I have one purdy for my trim work and I just love it.

  677. My next project will be painting a bookcase I bought for my daughter’s room. I’m thinking a funky vintage green color will look awesome. I might even stencil or add fabric to the inside. Who knows!

  678. Wow…great offer. I literally almost bought this 3pack this weekend, but ended up having to wait to get them. This would be great!
    I want to start painting a stripe feature wall in what will become a nursery!!!
    Thanks

  679. I would love to win these! Maybe they will help ensure that my first major furniture re-do comes out great! I’m hoping to get started on painting a great CraigsList bureau I just got! Thanks!

  680. My next painting job is going to be a console table I got off of Craigslist! I can’t wait until it’s done, but I’m still deciding on which bold color I want to use.

  681. I love Purdy paintbrushes. I’m moving soon, so my painting projects will be many starting with a small table.
