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.

Register Vents & Wall Plates Change Up with Spray Paint


I have been sharing items in my youngest daughters new condo that we have updated with spray paint. We updated her brassy bedroom light fixturessmooth brassy door knobs, door stops (shown in other blog posts), vanity fixture and towel bar all done with Rustoleum oil rubbed bronze spray paint and a brass dining light in classic black.


The floor registers and wall plates were yellowing and needed an update as well. For these we chose a simple white Rustoleum spray paint. Quick color is made by Rustoleum and is the economy brand.


It worked perfect to update these plastic pieces. After a good scrubbing and left to dry, many thin coats sprayed in a well ventilated area were applied. Just looks at the change!
