We asked Nicole nearly the marvelous makeover. Here's what she told us.

"The radio was sourced at a local thrift shop equally business office of Kyla’s blueprint plan. I wiped it clean, sanded it to take the shine surface. The entire slice was masked off using painters tape, it was necessary to accept extra fourth dimension taping it off too thence pigment wouldn’t instruct on whatever of import parts of the radio. Then I primed it with Zinsser 123 spray primer, this is the best primer on the market, it locks inward stains, smells too actually helps the exceed coat adhere to the surface. After a few coats of primer I applied Florescent pinkish Rustoleum pigment in several real sparse layers, unfortunately this pigment isn’t ideal for furniture, the pigment itself is real sparse too thence it takes a spell to construct upward an opaque layer too the complete is real matte, but the coloring worked amongst the blueprint computer program too thence I merely went amongst it. I actually didn’t similar the concluding finish, too thence to accomplish a smoother effect I applied FAT Paint Wax real liberally too buffed it out, the concluding effect is almost similar eggshell paint. The legs were painted using Rustoleum matte black."
