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.

Another set of Coal Black Press Back Chairs


Press back chairs are a favorite of mine and apparently quite a few others too. After I posted a pair I did last year that came in for a refresh moving from outside on the deck to inside, a customer messaged hoping they were for sale. Luckily I had one set left unpainted that I could do in the exact same color, Fusion Mineral paints coal black.


Once scrubbed clean they were ready to go, two coats of coal black covered for a perfect solid classic black.


While I painted them, in between coats I was working on these glammed up nightstands in Fusion's champlain.


To add durability to them as they will be part of a family dining table, I applied 2 coats of Fusion's hemp oil wood finish. It also adds a slight sheen to the black and enriches the deep color even more.







The cedar lined armoire in the background is done in Homestead House (Fusion's parent company) milk paint midnight blue with coal black stenciled on the sides and sealed with the same hemp oil.
