Autumn Floral Wooden Box

  Autumn is upon us, friends! When I received this lovely box from a friend, I immediately knew it needed a floral makeover. The newly released Autumn Morning  Dixie Belle transfer  looks absolutely stunning against the pretty green paint, don’t you think?

wooden canister set reloved in Fusion's putty



My Mom bought me this wooden canister set as a project, first step scrub up and let dry


Oh yes, there was one repair to be made

My first attempt at painting was with Homestead House Paint Co. in Renfrew blue but the canisters and milk paint had a mind of their own on the lids and only one side.. excessive chipping


and below is the Renfrew blue with Homestead House Paint Co. loyalist milk paint dry brushed on for a cool old denim look but with tops and one side on each really chippy it was not the look I wanted so I washed them all clean. This is the great part of milk paint until sealed.



Fusion Mineral Paint putty was the next color choice and one coat covered perfectly on all sides, bottom and lid and top edges. 


I want a vintage look so sanded all sides and edges then added  Homestead House black furniture wax for dimension and aging.
