Modernized Solid Pine Hand Crafted Heart Wall Shelf

Bringing New Life to a Country Classic. We’ve all seen them: those solid, well-built pine shelves from the 80s and 90s that have a lot of heart (literally) but are stuck in that unmistakable "orange" stain era. While the craftsmanship is top-tier (this one was hand crafted by my father in law), the color can often feel a bit too retro for a contemporary home. In this tutorial, I’m showing you how to take a vintage 9-cubby wall shelf and transform it from a dated relic into a bolder, fresher, and more current statement piece. By applying a rich chestnut brown stain , we’ve traded that brassy orange hue for a deep, sophisticated tone that highlights the wood grain. Follow along as I walk you through the prep, the staining process, and how this simple color shift completely changes the vibe of the piece—making those iconic heart cutouts feel intentional and chic rather than just "country."

Fusion's coal black and liming wax Vintage Chair


This solid oak chair made by Canadian furniture company Krug was given new life with Fusion Mineral Paint  in classic coal black.


The curvy comfy styling makes this chair perfect as an accent chair, desk chair, bedroom chair or extra seating at a dining table.


Two coats of Fusion Mineral Paint in coal black covered the chair easily. To add a unique twist, Fusion's newly released liming wax was hand rubbed all over casting a fun fresh finish; classic black with a twist.
