Antiqued Pink Jewelry Box with Faux Mercury Glass Door

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.

Everything looks prettier in pink don't you think?

This cute little wooden jewelry box needed some personality. First step, clean all surfaces well. Bring on the Fusion Mineral Paint in the lovely English rose.

It is such a soft petal pink. This is one coat. In order not to sand thru the original finish it is easiest to wet distress the edges soon after painting after each coat to let the original dark stain peek thru.

Two coats were the coverage needed and once dry all was lightly sanded with Fusion MineralPaint's ageing wax added to the edges to give the antiqued look.

One step to go. Here are the latest rich navy blue and soft damask jewelry boxes and the vintage farmhouse coffee table tutorials.

Now to finish the glass. I went with my favorite faux mercury glass look (using vinegar & spray paint) that blends so well with the antiqued vintage look.
