Someone tagged me on FB for this little cutie. I instantly loved the clean lines and simple shape. And, it's on casters! What could be better than that?!
The woman I purchased it from actually delivered it right to my front door. I was so grateful I didn't have to go out in the horrendously cold weather we've been having. I know, I'm a baby!
Before
The finish was rough but the chest, itself, was in nice shape. A pretty easy re-do.
My client wanted something neutral so I went to my new favorite color for a little help. It's Linen from General Finishes. I get a little tired of white and cream. This color has the benefit of going with everything and has a little more depth than your traditional whites.
After
So pretty, I will not keep it...I will not keep it...
I absolutely love this color with a dark wood top, too. They compliment each other so well!
This top was sanded down and received 2 coats of Java Gel from General Finishes and 3 coats of Varathane in Satin.
Is there anything prettier than a delicate bunch of baby's breath in a rusty old oil can?
I think not!
I like using the rusty, old water can as a flower pot!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome delivery!
ReplyDeleteWhat a transformation, whoo hoo - and yes, that color is awesome.
ReplyDeleteI had and did some pieces and they're too creamy, I wish I'd had done them in THIS color - it's perfect.
