This one was a fun little project. I wanted to try my hand at two-toned.

Annie Sloan's paints blend beautifully. I think that's part of the reason why I tend to use it so much more than others. And, I also think that when I blend up paints in my little Tupperware, I feel more "artsy-fartsy".


Before/After:

This one was taken with my phone in my garage/work space. Apologies for the fuzziness!

So, I wish I could tell ya what the outside of this pretty chest was, but alas - I haven't got a clue. It's a little French Linen, a little Chateau Grey, and a little Coco I think?? It tuned into a fun darker taupe/olive. The drawers were painted in Old White, then everything got a clear and dark wax. The drawers were painted in Duck Egg Blue. I kept the original hardware, but just spray painted them a dark bronze.

I think it turned out fabulously! While I adore doing client's pieces, for obvious reasons, it's fun to pick up pieces off Craigslist to play around with different looks and techniques.
