From Gilded to Grounded: A Standing Jewelry Armoire's Dark Moody Transformation

Sometimes, a "bright and airy" makeover just doesn’t fit the vibe. I found this standing jewelry armoire after it had already been given a white and gold facelift by someone else, but it felt a bit too "glam" for many people. I knew it had the potential to be something much more sophisticated, mysterious, and—of course— moody . In this tutorial, I’m taking you through the process of retaining some of the previous DIY and layering on a deep, velvety dark green finish. We’ll be leaning into those shadows, highlighting the unique curved silhouette.

Farmhouse White Kitchen Collection



This collection of kitchen goodies was compiled with plans of doing all in a lovely farmhouse white.


They will all coordinate so can be bought together or individually and fit into most kitchen decor schemes when done in a pretty neutral.


I went with Fusion Mineral Paint in Champlain; a soft warm white. All but 1 piece was painted two coats, most were lightly distressed for a further farmhouse feel with Fusion's ageing wax added for even more dimension and vintage look.

this coffee mug tree is first up




followed by 2 solid wood paper towel holders. One was left more modern with no ageing wax or distressing.




There is loads of slots in this solid oak knife block

And this expandable accordion style wall rack can hand either direction and would be fabulous to hang vintage tea towels on, mugs, the entry for hats / scarves or even in the bedroom for jewelry. So versatile!


Here is a combo of them all :)
