Project Working

The color it sported when we came across it was a rusty red. 

Carrie at the Passionate Home was showing me some of the sample boards

of chalk paint colors and waxes, and we discussed the different layered looks

of colors that could be used. That got me thinking.

I dont like struggling against the furniture I found

and up to this point wasnt 100% on the right direction for this rusty piece.

I really enjoy how choosing old white worked with this piece.

The lightness of the white changes the color of the rust to a richer burgundy look.

I had a customer come to pick up another dresser and

when she saw this one almost bought it as well.

Some vintage heart shaped ring pulls painted in a two tone cream

and white to the drawers finished it off perfectly.
