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.

Custom Purple Jewelry Box



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
