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.

Dining Room Light Fixture Update with Spray Paint


One last condo spray painted update: this dining room light fixture.



My daughter found this solid brass beauty at the Restore store. It was what she wanted to replace the existing light fixture at her new condo. She did however want it matte black.


To make her wish come true, we taped off all the glass using painters tape then sprayed on many thin light coats using Rustoleum 2X ultra cover spray paint in matte black. Hanging it to spray paint allows you to get inside outside and all sides.


Once good and dry, the tape was removed and my daughter assisted her Dad in hanging it.

My daughter added updated IKEA LED light bulbs with gold bases for long lasting warm glow.

And here it is, long gone is the brassy brass finish to become a classic black feature fixture.
