From Gilded to Grounded: A Standing Jewelry Armoire's Dark Moody Transformation

Sometimes, a "bright and airy" makeover just doesn’t fit the vibe. I found this standing jewelry armoire after it had already been given a white and gold facelift by someone else, but it felt a bit too "glam" for many people. I knew it had the potential to be something much more sophisticated, mysterious, and—of course— moody . In this tutorial, I’m taking you through the process of retaining some of the previous DIY and layering on a deep, velvety dark green finish. We’ll be leaning into those shadows, highlighting the unique curved silhouette. Whether you're looking to tone down a piece that's "too bright" or you're ready to embrace the dark academia aesthetic, here is how I turned a high-contrast piece into a seamless, moody masterpiece.

Fusion Casement strikes again



Recently I did a dresser in Fusion's casement (shown below); a perfect white and topped it with some metallic sparkle. Time to make the matching big sister long 9 drawer dresser match it (shown above).


 the Laurentian shown here with Casement was used on a sweet vintage chair shown here.

dresser in original state
3 coats of casement colored Fusion paint and it had a fresh new look as well
 this is coverage after just on coat on the drawers

the hardware was scrubbed, refreshed in gold and given a coat of metallic sealer



then once all hardware was put back on and the paint dry, it was ready to be set up and find its new home


 the original hardware is just so awesome
