Revamping a Play Kitchen- Paint Question
in Crafts
I don't often post on the nest, I'm usually on the bump but I had a question for those more knowledgeable than myself. I wasn't sure if I should post here or on renovating so let me know if I should post over there as well.
I purchased a used, wooden play kitchen for my LO. It was in a daycare so it's rather beaten up and I want to repaint it.
I wasn't sure if I should use a latex paint from a hardware store or an acrylic paint from a craft store or something else. Paint is not my forte.
I also wasn't sure if I should find something nontoxic and safe for children. What would I use in this case?
Thanks!

Re: Revamping a Play Kitchen- Paint Question
Any non toxic paint you use will be fine, just depends on the look you're going for.
I personally wouldn't use acrylic paint, unless it was just on the details. It's thin and takes too many coats, and would end up being expensive. I'd just buy a gallon of Dutch Boy or Valspar and go from there. They have low VOC/noVOC paint and should be what you're looking for.
Good luck!
Thanks for the info!
