My newest clients, Samantha and her hubby, are moving into their new house and are in need of a new look and style for their new digs. Samantha wants to mix old with new and bring in pops of color.One piece she recently had done is a cute little green side table.
For her bedroom she wants to keep the furniture clean, crisp and classic so she decided to go with white.

I think these pieces look so classic and beautiful.
I used Swiss Coffee and used my homemade chalk paint recipe, very lightly distressed, added new glass knobs and sealed with wax.
What do you think of classic white pieces?
Love them em' or hate em'?

Thanks! I sure hope so. I'm hoping to get photos of her bedroom soon. Everything in her bedroom is white but we are adding old distressed doors as a headboard and a pop of orange with a mirror. Super cute room!!!
Deletebeautiful. What kind of wax did you use?
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelly, I used Johnson's Finsihing Paste. It's super easy to use!
DeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteThank you Susan and thanks for stopping by!! : )
DeleteLove, great job!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much : )
DeleteI love everything french. What a fab find! I desperately need those:)
ReplyDeleteMe too!! I think she found them on CL. Thanks for stopping by : )
DeleteBeautiful work. A question about the glass knobs. Did you use bolts to attach them? I don't see screw-heads in the close-up. Would love to find a tall dresser like that!
ReplyDeleteHi! No, I go them from Lowe's and they come with a pin you put in the center and then you use a screw as normal. Here is a link to the knob on Lowe's website...http://www.lowes.com/pd_253493-81227-PN0238V-CLR-C7_4294777204__?productId=3028490&Ns=p_product_avg_rating|1
DeleteHelen this set is AMAZING!!! It's soooo beautiful! I don't know why your posts aren't coming up in my feed, I missed out on these and that beautiful green table! I was feeling so uninspired about using up some of my old white paint on a dresser I'm doing but I'm totally re-inspired :) These look so elegant and classic, just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks Samaa!! You aren't in my feed either...weird! I googled you last night to see what you were up to.
DeleteI'm paiting an old dresser that same green. I love that green! Glad I could inspire you : )
XOXO
Absolutely stunning! Wow. They are classic and beautiful and old, but new and fresh at the same time. LOVE THEM.
ReplyDeleteThanks Arli, I completely agree. Paint is like magic sometimes. Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteI love it! It looks great! And those drawer pulls are so vintage and classic. Very elegant pieces!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ellora! I'm hoping to get a picture of their whole bedroom soon. It screams classic! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI love it! What a transformation, your client has to be thrilled!
ReplyDeleteThank you....They loved the set. Thank you for stopping by : )
Deletelove it, what kind of wax do you use??
ReplyDeleteThank you. I used Johnson's Paste Wax.
DeleteI love the white...I don't think you can ever go wrong with either white or black. I am curious...was the top of this set laminate? It sort of appears so in the first picture. I have not had the nerve to use chalk paint on laminate yet, but I see a lot of people do!
ReplyDeleteAmazing job on this set!
Thank you so much! I'm not sure if it was laminate but it had two layers of something on it. I sanded the top of the long dresser because it would be so visable. Even though I use homemade chalk paint I still sand or use a primer on certain areas.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
Definitely LOVE it! Glass knobs a must addition. Great Job!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! i'm a big fan of classic white furniture :) glad to find your blog. found you from savvy southern style.

this set is so breathtakingly beautiful and perfectly done!
ReplyDeleteThose are some gorgeous pieces!! I have a very similar dresser that I painted aqua awhile back and now I've been toying it taking it back to white. These totally make me what to do that! Just beauitful!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to see the considerable subtle element here!. valentines day gift french provincial bedroom
ReplyDeleteGreat you Are happy
ReplyDeleteI've got one myself because like 10 decades. I enjoy it as well, not modded as yours however.
At this time it doesn't operate, it chokes if warm. Brought into some neigbour of mine and he will get a deeper look at it.
It feels like a few have had difficulty using the automatic decompression valve, so does yours have this?
Have a fantastic day!

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this. Choosing the right bedroom furniture can be a daunting task, especially when trying to balance quality and budget. However, my recent experience with Corporate Rentals Clearance Center has completely changed the game. Their used bedroom furniture sets not only offer a cost-effective solution but also maintain the high standards of durability and design.
