Azure Stenciled Jewelry Box

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.

What a change, right?

This forlorn little jewelry box was begging for a makeover and that is just what I did.

After a very good cleaning with a damp rag and Simple Green cleaner, I painted it in two coats of one of my favorite blues from Fusion Mineral Paint called renfrew blue.

Originally I hoped to decoupage this pretty napkin over it but after research I found that white napkins over dark colors were a challenge. The paint color should be the same as the napkin background for a seamless look so that idea was scratched.

From my stencil stash I chose this gorgeous floral stencil which was part of the Indian Inlay stencil kit from Cutting Edge Stencils . I stenciled the floral design using another of my favorite Fusion Mineral Paint blues called azure.
