Elegant MCM Tallboy in Cast Iron Black with Natural Wood Accents

Elevate your space with this exquisitely reimagined Mid-Century Modern tallboy chest. Once bearing a pale, dated finish, it now stuns in a rich cast iron black, beautifully contrasted by solid wood drawers finished in a warm, natural stain. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated—from the elegantly updated black hardware to the refined moldings and drawer groove accents. Smooth-gliding feet have been added for effortless movement across both hardwood and carpet. Measuring 34" W x 17.5" D x 40.5" H, this sophisticated piece offers both function and timeless style—an instant statement in any well-appointed room.

Farmhouse Chair Pair Update in Fusion's Champlain


A good customer custom called my last press back chair and brought 2 of her own dining chairs to be painted to match along with a wee step stool to paint a fun teal.


Here are all before


Above all cleaned and ready to paint and below 1 coat of  Fusion Mineral Paint in Champlain. Again I used my large oval Staalmeester brush to apply it.


And here is 2 coats

Both were lightly distressed then Fusion's ageing wax  was rubbed on. See left is done and right is not



Here they are with big sister press back





Here is a closeup of the stool, she wanted it done just like the exact same stool I did before Christmas in antique teal. Hers was honey was the only difference :)
