French Provincial Nightstand Modern Makeover

This nightstand is part of a charming French Provincial style bedroom set originally crafted by  Malcolm Furniture  here in Canada years ago. One of my valued customers entrusted me with giving this piece a fresh, updated look. She envisions the entire set transformed into a soothing medium grey, perfectly complementing her new home's décor. Given the nightstand's beautiful, solid construction, it was an easy and rewarding decision to invest in revitalizing this quality piece, ensuring it continues to bring beauty and functionality to its new setting.

Stenciled Solid Oak Jewelry Box Or Remote Holder


Jewelry boxes make the perfect storage boxes for remotes, keys, memory tickets and so much more.


This solid oak jewelry box was missing its removable shelf but that will not stop it from having a functional future.


The lined open area is the perfect storage spot for so many things.


Step 1 - remove the hardware and clean well.


Now to paint! I chose House & Canvas paint in angora white for this and a super sweet dough bowl.


Both projects were painted two coats of this beautiful warm white color.


When dry, the edges were lightly sanded to distress back to reveal the original wood finish.


The top needed something to jazz it up. This quadrefoil stencil from Dixie Belle Paint was perfect paired with Fusion Mineral Paint  vintage gold metallic paint chosen to go with the hardware.


The Fusion Mineral Paint vintage gold paint was stenciled on with a small stencil brush.


It is perfect! A light sanding then everything was clear waxed with Fusion Mineral Paint's ageing wax  used to age and add dimension.
