Wooden Spice Rack in Fusion's Plaster

Soft Neutral Shades Media Cabinet

Fresh Start for a Veneer Classic This manufactured media cabinet—with its once orange-tinged wood veneer—has been completely refreshed in a soft, neutral taupe called French Villa . Inside the glass-front doors, the adjustable shelf pops in Truffle , a beautifully rich and earthy shade from a newly released palette. The warm, complementary colors work together to give this piece a stylish, modern update and a brand new lease on life.

After a customer purchased this white farmhouse roll top bread box and vintage round wooden tray, she found this round spice rack and sent to me to paint to "match" the other two pieces.

As with every piece, it starts with a good cleaning. This piece had a waxy greasy coating that required scraping and scrubbing to be sure it was all off before moving on to the paint process.

Just like the other 2 pieces I applied two coats Fusion Mineral Paint in the color plaster, a warm white color.

The edges were lightly distressed to keep the vintage look and hints of wood visible.

To further age it, I applied Fusion Mineral Paint black wax in the crevices and edges.

The last step was to add a stencil, again like the other 2 pieces in the collection. This Waverly stencil fit perfect. Using a small stencil brush I applied Fusion Mineral Paint in coal black over the secured stencil.

Once dry, it was lightly sanded to give a worn aged look in keeping with the whole look.
