Salt & Pepper Set in Liberty Blue and Copper

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.

Copper tops called for a rich blue don't you think?

This super cute solid wood salt and pepper set was in dire need of a makeover.

After a good scrubbing inside and out it was time to polish the copper tops. See above how the metal polish (center) easily removed the grime.

And with some elbow grease the tops were back to their coppery selves.

There is a slight color difference between the two tops including the silver knobs but mixed metals are all the rage.

Now they are ready to paint.

Two coats of Fusion Mineral Paint in liberty blue were brushed on then paper bag sanded smooth. Fusion paint has a very durable built in top coat making it a super easy less step paint to use.

This gorgeous set is ready to serve.
