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.

Teal Ceramic Plant Pot Update


Isn't this majesty palm lovely? And it's newly painted pot is sure pretty too.

Did you see the 2 plastic and small ceramic plant pots I updated with spray paint?


Originally this large IKEA ceramic pot was glazed a deep navy blue. It worked perfect in my old home decor but in my new home I wanted it to have a bit more of an ocean blue look.


I choose House & Canvas's antique teal. I loved it on this sweet vintage table , wooden step stool and vintage jewelry box.


One coat was brushed on with a bit of the navy left showing. Some areas had a second coat applied for a layered look.


Daddy Van's clear wax orange scented was brushed over the entire surface with their white wax added in areas for an ocean water colored look. PERFECT!


And it was now complete, ready for a new plant.


My new majesty palm was the lucky recipient to be placed in this pot. I did first pot it in a white plastic pot so it can easily be put in the shower for a tropical rain ;)


If you have pots on hand but the wrong color, dont be afraid to add some paint... and wax to amp them up!
