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.

Mandala Lazy Susan


I LOVE MANDALAS... as you may have guessed by my recent post on stenciling one on my deck, this sweet geometric coffee table, this cute round coffee table, this sweet lazy susan and atop these saddle stools.


I knew this black lazy susan would look perfect with an ombre mandala stencil.

It was scrubbed up clean ready for paint.


I went with a mandala stencil from Muddaritaville Studio, the same one I used on the stool tops.

Be sure to stop by Muddaritaville with this link for 10% off your stencil order.


Using a small stencil brush I applied Fusion Mineral Paint little lamb in the center, then putty and finally picket fence on the outside

Check out this past post for stenciling tips.


However once the stencil was removed I did not care for the putty with the other 2 colors.


So I put the stencil back in place 


and blended the little lamb and picket fence to get a middle tone and stenciled it over the putty.


PERFECT!!

    1. thank you for the kind words, it seems I missed sharing the final step, I used clear wax to add a layer of protection over the stencil :)
