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?

Sunflowers and Lemonade Jewelry Box

 

Soft sunny yellow always seems so cheery as do sunflowers so I used both on my latest jewelry box creation.


This vintage wooden cutie needs a change up, first step was a good cleaning with a bottle of pre mixed Dixie Belle white lightening cleaner and a cloth then wiped with fresh water. The inside was vacuumed well too.


The soft sunny yellow I chose from Dixie Belle Paint was called lemonade.


It gave a vintage vibe to the wooden jewelry box. Three coats were brushed on.


Everything was then smoothed using a fine (blue) RAD pad by SurfPrep.


This pad was also perfect to lightly distress the edges to keep the vintage feel. The paint was then sealed with clear Dixie Belle's best dang wax.


The sunflower DixieBelle transfers were cut out and moved around the box to find placement.


Then applied using the applicator stick.

The bold yellow interior and gold door grating compliments the soft yellow sunflower exterior.




Speaking of lemonade I made some fermented lemonade at the same time.
