Autumn Floral Wooden Box

  Autumn is upon us, friends! When I received this lovely box from a friend, I immediately knew it needed a floral makeover. The newly released Autumn Morning  Dixie Belle transfer  looks absolutely stunning against the pretty green paint, don’t you think?

Bayberry Green Jumbo Salt and Pepper Grinder Set

 

This is the tallest salt and pepper set I have seen. They are jumbo at 16" high. A customer wanted them updated in a rich green color and chose Fusion Mineral Paint bayberry.


As always the first step was to scrub them well. There is always something on wood surfaces after years of use that will affect the paint adherence.


Size is deceptive so I put the paint tub beside them. Tall right?


Three coats of Fusion Mineral Paint bayberry were carefully brushed on for a smooth seamless finish. The customer did not want an aged look but rather a modern solid look. To add a bit of shine over the matte paint I hand rubbed in Homestead House clear wax


It added the perfect shine to this gorgeous green solid wood set.


They are so tall they dwarf the antique drum table.
