    INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Paint the entire board in Chambray and wipe it off with a damp rag, scrubbing to reveal the wood grain underneath. (This is best achieved in sections, so the stain doesn't dry and it's easier to get the vintage/distressed look.)
    2. Instruction #1
    3. Stain the heel of each knob in Real Red using the same method listed in STEP ONE.
    4. Instruction #2
    5. Paint the round part of each knob in a solid coat of Everlasting. Paint the stitching in Rouge, making sure one side of the stitching faces one way and the other faces the opposite way.
    6. Instruction #3
    7. Sand each knob to create a distressed effect.
    8. Instruction #4
    9. Paint each knob in Clear Crème Wax. While it is still wet, use a dry rag to apply Golden Brown Crème Wax and wipe it around. (This will create a vintage/used effect.)
    10. Instruction #5
    11. Use E6000 Glue to secure the knobs to the board. (Or you can use a drill and screws.)
