Favorite Combo Custom Painted Antique Dresser

  A valued customer entrusted me with restoring an antique dresser she found online. It was in much rougher shape than advertised when she picked it up, but I believe I transformed it to match her vision. With its classic warm white finish and a darker stained top, it now has the timeless charm she envisioned.

Bombay Watch Chest in Angora White



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.



To add age and dimension Fusion Mineral Paint's black wax was used.





Isn't it a great addition for someone who loves watches?
