Modernized Pine Dresser in Gray

  If you're a fan of clear coat pine, this makeover might not be your cup of tea. But for those who love breathing new life into old furniture, I hope this tutorial sparks some inspiration! The original clear pine finish has aged over the years, and the tall dresser has endured its fair share of wear and tear. With a little care, attention, and a fresh new color, it now serves a new purpose with renewed charm.

Coal Black Pepper Grinder with White Wax



Here is my score from a thrift store, click here to see the tall jewelry box and here for the wood & metal trunk makeovers 


This solid wood and stainless steel pepper grinder from Cole & Mason was in fantastic shape but really need a punch of color or in this case the absence of color as I chose black, Fusion Mineral paints coal black to be exact.


Two coats of black were applied, each coat brushed in a different direction to create a cross hatch pattern. This adds texture to the grinder as well and for a bit of additional pizzaz I wiped on Miss Mustard Seed's white wax which caught nicely in the cross hatch pattern and softened the black.
