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.

Farmhouse Crate


This little wooden crate just needed some paint and dark wax to give it personality.

It is available on my Etsy store


Start by scrubbing the piece well with a cleaner like Simple Green cleaner and a scrub brush to get in all the corners.


Jolie Paint's palace white was dry brushed on all sides then lightly sanded to smooth the wood and remove some of the paint using a sanding sponge. A damp cloth wiped a bit of the paint off the metal corners for a worn look.


The entire crate was sealed with Jolie's clear wax using their fabulous wax brush. To add dimension and give an aged look, their brown wax was applied in corners and around the edges. I LOVE their wax brush and have 2, one for each color wax.
