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.

Sage Green Jewelry Box


Vintage jewelry boxes can be readily found at thrift stores. They are perfect pieces to update in pretty colors.


This sweet wood 4 drawer has a working music box that plays "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head" as a bonus.


Only one repair was needed on a damaged corner, easily fixed with wood filler and sandpaper.


Now what color??


As a brand blogger for Fusion Mineral Paint , I received this tester size sample box of the new colors from the Lisa Marie Holmes collection. The tester sizes are perfect for small projects like this jewelry box.



But which one to choose?


I put it out there to my Instagram followers to vote and sacred sage was hands down winner by allot.


Two coats went on...


I LOVE the grey base to this sage green color!!


To keep the vintage feel I lightly distressed the edges.



And added Fusion Mineral Paint ageing wax for more dimension.


Perfect combination!!
