The problem
3000 colors to choose from.
Oh so many beautiful colors, Heaven help me.
I chose,
TA DA!
Rising Tide,
a light silver blue.
The second problem,
should I paint this cedar chest my Dad had given me when I graduated. . . or leave it as is.
It had seen better days, through moves and kids.
He was kinda a mover and a shaker and an entrepreneur, so I did it, and He would be proud.
Before
It is screaming - paint me!
After
Knob less ~ haven't found the perfect ones yet.
I pushed the drawer in to far, and without knobs, I am going to have to use a screw driver.
I did not prime this piece. I knew I was going to distress the heck out of it, and I want the dark wood to
show through!
After I gave it 2 good coats of paint, I let the paint dry. To give a more finished dirty look, I put miniwax special walnut on and wiped it off.
One More look
Did I pick the right color,
I think So!
P.S. the sample size of Valspar paint, painted this, plus I have some left.
