In episode #88 of BusyBee Refinishing with MelDidItHerself, I discuss that
furniture in your home that looks like it's wood aesthetically, but feels like
plastic to the touch... it's laminate, and it can be updated! I walk you through
some inexpensive, simple upgrades you can do to these furniture pieces and walk
you through step-by-step how to paint them to give them a glow up.
