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.

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 Mineral Paint'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.


It is perfect don't you think?



The soft pink is perfect with the light grey interior.
