Classic Black Antique China Cabinet

  Does anyone have china dishes anymore? Is it still a thing? Years ago, when I got married, it was all about picking your china pattern and creating a gift registry for the pieces you needed. My pattern was called Chelsea by Royal Doulton, and it was a soft muted floral.

Fusion new color release


As a Fusion blogger we are privy to seeing the new colors before they go public, so exciting. This fall's release has amazing colors, here are just a few.. check them out, which does your eye go to first?

After seeing an inspiration picture on Pinterest, on a very similar style dresser, I thought the new cranberry would be stunning with a gold "skirt". Once the colors actually arrived I was torn though but the pretty fall color ended up top of the list.



these were my top picks



Here is the MCM dresser, not bad from straight on

so interesting to see how blonde it really was in its glory days and how the sealer turned yellow, the handles are very MCM cool so a quick polish of the brass proved they will shine up well


but why the partial black paint down the side? So time to sand



so lets add back new legs that were lost over the years and do repairs and sanding of wood filled and rough areas and give it a thorough scrub to wash away the years of gathered dust



the finish was super smooth so to be sure I wiped on a layer of Fusion Ultra Grip for great adhesion


time to get the gold bottom on the base


and the bottom drawer


 as well as the new legs (disposable spray booths come in all sizes)


 
and while the many layers of gold dried I got started with the gorgeous cranberry color



 and create the transition line



 the hardware was polished and the wood backings painted, the solid construction has great dove tail drawers but what could this small solid ledge be in the top drawer??
