Isn't this the neatest little chest?
My client is building a new home. She delivered this unfinished cabinet to my studio and told me she wanted me to paint a teal bottom with a black top.
She will be placing a stone sink on the top, so the browns and beige undertones will look really nice and tie in with the stone finish.
After I painted and distressed, I painted on and rubbed off a dark stain to match the black top.
I love to distress and age furniture.
This top is distressed a little heavily, but I wasn't sure about the size of the sink and how much surface it would cover.
When she came to pick it up, she was very happy with the new finish.
That's what I care about!
Making my client happy with my work.
LOVE IT!! Such a pretty color!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I enjoyed painting it and I love the teal and black, too.
DeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! Did you use AS Chalk paint or what? You are very talented, great job!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! No, I didn't use her paint. Just my hard work. I mix a lot of my products. I hear Annie has very good paint, though.
DeleteThis is beautiful! Is the teal a metallic?
ReplyDeleteThank you!! No, the teal is just regular paint. I think my flash and the outside light make it look like it could be metallic.
DeleteSo pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I love the way it turned out, too.
DeleteThe teal and black is so pretty, I think it turned out perfect.
ReplyDeleteYour new follower, Hope you follow me too

Thank you so much!! She gave me good colors to work with.
DeleteThat looks amazing, really love the colour choices you came up with~
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love the teal and black, together. The shape of the chest is just wonderful, too!
DeleteYou always have the prettiest projects, Lynda! I am super impressed with this one!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! When you distress and age, you almost can't do anything wrong. The more you mess up, the better it looks! :)
DeleteThis piece is gorgeous, love the color you chose!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I love the shape of the chest, too. My client told me the colors to use.
DeleteIt looks absolutely gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteIt is so elegant, doesn't even look like the same piece of furniture. I'd love to see it with the stone sink on it too.
ReplyDeleteYes, I love the shape of the cabinet. I would love to see the sink, too, but probably will never get to see it. I'll share the picture if they send me one.
DeleteThat is such a lovely cabinet and your paint technique just highlighted it to perfection. Thanks for sharing at TTF!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! Yes, they chose such a beautiful piece of furniture.
DeleteOh, what a great idea...I have a little cabinet similar and just have not been able to decide how to finish it. This is very pretty. Maybe I will leave mine brown on the top and a creamy off white on the bottom with very dark stain. Maybe two colors of of white dry brushed one...thanks for the inspiration!

That sounds very, very nice!! The nice thing about paint is some day you can re-do it, again.
DeleteAmazing and beautiful! Great job :-).
