Stenciled Solid Oak Jewelry Box Or Remote Holder

Modernized Pine Dresser in Gray

If you're a fan of clear coat pine, this makeover might not be your cup of tea. But for those who love breathing new life into old furniture, I hope this tutorial sparks some inspiration! The original clear pine finish has aged over the years, and the tall dresser has endured its fair share of wear and tear. With a little care, attention, and a fresh new color, it now serves a new purpose with renewed charm.

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.
