Pink Carved Trinket Box

Green and Floral Round Tray Makeover

This round tray has been completely reimagined. Its original shabby chic white finish has been updated to a rich dark green, and a delicate floral rice paper adds a touch of elegance. A final layer of dark wax deepens the colour and accentuates the details, giving it a beautifully aged, vintage feel.

I LOVE hand carved wooden boxes. This sweet little box and the hand carved floral design called for a special color, pink came to mind.

I am so excited to have pretty pink milk paint in my arsenal. This is Palm Springs pink from Fusion Milk Paint.

Milk paint is easy to mix 1:1 powder to water in the amount you need for the project.

Brush the milk paint on; I love the 1" Fusion Chip Brush and allow to dry. Milk paint dries super fast making a project quicker to create.

Two coats gave the perfect coverage I wanted. Lightly sand the paint smooth and distress the edges for a vintage look.

To seal my milk paint I chose clear Fusion Furniture Wax. Look at the lovely sheen the wax adds! To give further dimension the ageing color of Fusion Furniture Wax was added to the carved areas and edges.
