Bombay Watch Chest in Angora White

French Provincial Nightstand Modern Makeover

This nightstand is part of a charming French Provincial style bedroom set originally crafted by Malcolm Furniture here in Canada years ago. One of my valued customers entrusted me with giving this piece a fresh, updated look. She envisions the entire set transformed into a soothing medium grey, perfectly complementing her new home's décor. Given the nightstand's beautiful, solid construction, it was an easy and rewarding decision to invest in revitalizing this quality piece, ensuring it continues to bring beauty and functionality to its new setting.

This adorable mahogany wood watch display chest from Bombay Co was in need of a reloving.

My first step is to clean the surface well with an environmental spray cleaner and damp cloth as well as a good vacuuming on the interior.

Two coats of House & Canvas soft angora white were applied then the edges wet distressed to reveal that original gorgeous dark finish. The paint was then sealed with Annie Sloan clear wax.

I was lucky enough to win this lovely Canadian made paint from House & Canvas on Instagram and am very happy with the coverage and consistency. Click to see the teal paint on a sweet end table.
