I really had no plans on sharing this project so I didn't take any before pictures or step by step pictures, but if you are interested in knowing how I achieved this look, I will share my process.
I mixed my own chalk paint using paint left over from previous projects. I first applied three coats of white to both pieces. Once completely dry, I applied one coat of Khaki Tan by Decoart to just the mirror and drawers. Once dry I sanded the paint to reveal the white underneath. Using a dark Minwax stain, I applied it to the painted surface and quickly removed it with a dry cloth as I didn't want it too dark. Again, I only did this to the drawers and mirror. Some areas were darker than I liked so I sanded a bit of the color away and dry brushed white over top just to lighted the area. I continued in this manner until I was happy with the colors. I used a clear Minwax paste wax to all surfaces to give the table and mirror a rich buffed sheen.
I was trying to achieve an old world look similar to Restoration Hardware. Hmmmm...any thoughts???Some days I like it and other days I think I should repaint it. It's only been a few days so I will live with it a bit longer.
Thank you for stopping by. Have a great week!

ReplyDeleteVery late to comment on this but LOVE it! I really like the mix of the white with the darker front and mirror frame not to mention, the way you've added décor to it.
