Soft Neutral Shades Media Cabinet

Fresh Start for a Veneer Classic This manufactured media cabinet—with its once orange-tinged wood veneer—has been completely refreshed in a soft, neutral taupe called   French Villa . Inside the glass-front doors, the adjustable shelf pops in   Truffle , a beautifully rich and earthy shade from a newly released palette. The warm, complementary colors work together to give this piece a stylish, modern update and a brand new lease on life.

Pink Carved Trinket Box


 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.


The solid wood box opens to a secure storage area.
