Walnut MCM Dresser with Warm White Accents

  I am a huge wood grain fan and when I find MCM pieces which usually are walnut wood I am thrilled to give them an update. This 6 drawer dresser did not disappoint. The warm white and wood combo is always a favorite of mine. How about you?

Fusion little lamb & black waxed dining chairs makeover


Awhile back I created a Restoration Hardware inspired dining table. The couple that purchased it had 4 mismatched painted chairs they wanted to go around it. They also wanted to lighten up their dining room so I chose the lighter shade of grey I used on the table, Fusion Mineral Paint's little lamb.



Three of the chairs were partially painted black but the pools of paint and cracking original finish required all the chairs to be sanded down and the 4th chair painted black so all had a cohesive under coats.

 sanded and first coat of little lamb goes on



then Homestead's black wax and distressing on the right side with solid on left, the customer liked the rustic look so it was a go ahead to carry on





all 4 chairs had 2 coats of little lamb grey and black wax detailing after hand sanding to distress



then for added durability I put a clear coat of Homestead furniture wax on the seats and backs of each chair








I have received product in exchange for this post, but ALL the opinions are entirely MY own.  This post contains sponsored links for Fusion Mineral Paint
