Wooden Basket Makeover

Classic Black Antique China Cabinet

Does anyone have china dishes anymore? Is it still a thing? Years ago, when I got married, it was all about picking your china pattern and creating a gift registry for the pieces you needed. My pattern was called Chelsea by Royal Doulton, and it was a soft muted floral.

Wood and wire basket gets a farmhouse update, let's see how!

I sourced this forlorn dirty solid wood basket at a local thrift store.

After a good scrub to clean it all up, it was sanded smooth ready to paint.

I chose to dry brush one of Fusion Mineral Paints's newest paint colors called Goddess Ashwagandha over every side including the bottom for a worn rustic farmhouse feel.

Even though it was only a small tester size, I painted this silverware chest as well and still have some left for another small project. Isn't this Fusion tester package lovely? I have tried the soft sacred sage green on this jewelry box and plan to try the purples soon.

Wanting to add a stencil but not wanting to commit to just one item that could be in the basket such as coffee I stenciled on this pretty shape using Rustoleum's black chalkboard paint.
