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.

Antiqued Yellow Vintage Jewelry Box


After and before.. a vintage jewelry chest is made-over in the customers favorite color: yellow and given an antiqued finish.

She says she loves yellow as it is a sign of hope and happiness!


These are such gorgeous wooden jewelry boxes. 


It has a sweet personalized engraved note too.


The yellow chosen was Creme Brule (no longer available but bees knees is close) from Country Chic Paint; above the first coat went on, don't worry a second coat will make it much more opaque.


Here is 2 coats, much better. The customer wanted it to feel aged and antiqued so the edges were wet distressed and a coat of clear wax was applied all over and buffed in


followed by Country Chic Paint antiquing wax to add the antiqued feel.

The bold red velour interior pops with the yellow don't you think?

    It looks really good. I would have never thought to use yellow. I have so many flatware boxes waiting for a new life. I may have to try this. I do have Need Knees and I haven't even opened it yet. Thanks for the inspiration.
