I was inspired to paint this sweet jewelry box in a golden sunset vibe. Do you think I achieved it?
I picked up this well loved wooden jewelry chest at a local thrift store and knew I could give it new life. It has great bones and storage.
First step was to remove the hardware, sand the edges that had been dinged up and clean it well inside and out with spray cleaner and a rag. The lining was vacuumed well with my hand held Dyson then wiped with a damp cloth as well.
Flip the brush to overlap the colors and blend. Misting with water in a
Fine
Mist Spray Bottle helps blending if needed too.
Here is the first coat, there are some thinner areas but they will be covered on the second coat.
This is 2 coats applied
how pretty right?
And the last step was to add some gold
Gilding Wax to the pulls that were put back on using my favorite tool; my finger to apply.
