Sweet Little Farmhouse Strawberry Crate

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.

Isn't this the sweetest little wood crate? It was cute as original but a wee bit of paint amped it up even more. It is available on my Etsy store :)

It was part of my small collection I painted using "Drop Cloth" from Dixie Belle Paint.

The strawberry crate was simply dry brushed with the warm white drop cloth paint on all sides. A light sanding with a sanding sponge then a coat of Dixie Belle's best dang wax in clear to seal it all up again on all sides.
