Vintage Art Deco China Cabinet Restore

This Art Deco waterfall china cabinet, circa 1940, had seen better days. Tucked away in a shop and used as a storage shelf, it was in rough shape. A family member, inspired by a photo featuring rich navy tones and warm wood, wanted to see it brought back to life. With that vision in mind, I gave the piece the repairs and makeover it deserved — blending classic navy with warm wood to honor both its history and a fresh new style.

Glass Canisters go Farmhouse Style



I think glass canisters are perfect for cookies, tea, treats, flour sugar etc on your cupboard however the pale pine is just far too "vanilla". Time to amp it up...


Miss Mustard Seed milk paint in marzipan, a soft warm white color went on first. I used this same color on this sweet accent table and farmhouse pine shelf  with my angled sash Zibra brush,


To add some whimsy, I stenciled the center of my mandala stencil from Muddaritaville Studio with Fusion Mineral Paint in coal black. See the full mandala stencil used on these stools.


To age it, I dry brushed  on Homestead House Milk Paint in Confederate grey, distressed the edges and waxed with Fusion Mineral Paint clear and black waxes.
