Modern Heirloom: MCM Black & Natural Wood 6-Drawer Dresser

This stunning Mid-Century Modern dresser is a masterful blend of timeless design and contemporary refinement. Finished in a classic satin black, the body provides the perfect contrast to six elegantly curved, linear drawers, each showcasing a rich natural wood stain that highlights the beauty of the grain. At 50" L x 19" D x 32" H, this statement piece offers generous storage while making a bold, sophisticated impact in any room. A modern heirloom, reimagined for today’s interiors.

Good Bye Orange Pumpkins



I picked up this pretty shiny ceramic pumpkin last year and had plans to give it a makeover but ran out of time so this year I pulled it out and set it at the front of the paint line.


I envisioned it in a warm white like the neat heirloom pumpkin varieties so popular now.

Seeing it was a shiny ceramic I went on the safe side and coated it with Fusion Mineral Paint's ultra grip for added paint adhesion.


I was working on a pair of wood candlesticks at the same time, both had Fusion Mineral Paint {get 10% off your order with this link} in Algonquin brushed on as first layer leaving the stem original.


Then 2 coats of Fusion Mineral Paint  in Champlain with their dark waxes in ageing and espresso to add shade and dimension


I just LOVE the transformation and it looks so lovely in my home decor now.




I liked it so much I decided to add a few more to the wooden dough bowl fall display so picked up a bag of minis at the dollar store.


And did the same steps on them sans the ultra grip



note the difference the dark wax makes on left vs solid paint on right
