Bayberry Green Jumbo Salt and Pepper Grinder Set

Pier One to Pottery Barn Trunk Makeover

A client brought in this Pier One trunk/coffee table to be painted. They wanted the finished product to be in the style of Pottery Barn furniture. The result was just what they envisioned. Now this updated, custom painted trunk/coffee table is ready to go back home and give them years of service.

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.
