Custom Purple Jewelry Box

Refinished Solid Oak Queen Headboard – Classic Black with Rattan & Elegant Details

This stunning queen-size headboard is a true statement piece, crafted from solid oak and beautifully refinished in a rich, classic black. It features gracefully curving finials, intricate oval cartouche accents, and a striking inset rattan panel that adds texture and timeless appeal. Finished with a smooth satin clear coat for durability and a subtle sheen, this headboard blends traditional charm with modern sophistication.

This worn dated jewelry box needed an update, hello Fusion Mineral Paint.

I had a wee amount of the Pantone Color 2018 Purple from this custom growth ruler I did.

Using Fusion's recipe and 3 colors, this pretty purple was created.

One coat covered this smooth surface perfectly then the entire box was distressed to reveal the original color.

To add more dimension, Fusion Mineral Paint's ageing wax was rubbed around the edges which also seals the distressed edges too.

To update the etched glass top, it was treated with Krylon Looking Glass spray to give it a faux mercury glass look. I love doing this with vintage jewelry boxes, see it used here on other jewelry boxes with popular pink and more pink and a fun French frame in ash
