If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram, you may have seen this treasure I picked up for $2 the other day. I am not quite sure what it’s previous life was…maybe sewing box? It reminds me a little bit of {this guy} and I am seriously loving how beautiful it turned…oh, and it was so simple!
Here is the glorious before…
All I did was give it a good cleaning, of course, and then simply dry brushed a Martha Stewart paint sample I had (Bedford Gray). I wanted to give it a worn gray washed wood like appearance, so the brown base was perfect. I used a basic bristle brush. I dipped just the end in a little paint, dabbed in on a paper towel then lightly and quickly brushed the surface. It literally took me under 5 minutes.
I love how it picked up the amazing detail in the medallion and how the beautiful lines and curves are shown off. It is a plastic material, but now has the appearance of carved wood.
I am not sure what her new life will be…maybe house some hair stuff…maybe makeup?…storage for my Rustik Chic supplies in my craft space?
I am sure however, I love price (2 bucks people!) and end result.
Linking up!
I love it, Krista! It's amazing how the detailing on this box stands out even more with the painting you did.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy! Yes, I love how paint can instantly do that...so fun:)
