Gorgeous Chest


I bought this Chest two weeks ago, when I saw it immediately decide to get it!
 

 

The design, the quality, the size, the drawers, the hardware......

After a good sanding, and other sanding, the piece was ready to paint.
 
 

I used Antique White from Olympic for the body, but for the beautiful doors and drawers an elegant color from Benjamin Moore...
 

 

Keeping the original hardware! Beautiful Bronze...
Two coats of Minwax Natural color finishing wax for protection
 


 
Hope you fall in love with it!
 
Thankful! Jacqueline

  2. It's lovely Jacqueline. I've been painting pieces recently but have been scared to do 2 tone treatments because I've seen a few that looked weird. This though, is lovely and understated and neutral.
    Perfect really.
