The Before...
And the After...
I love how this little piece turned out! I used AS Old Ochre on the whole piece and then CoCo on all the trim. Then I sanded and applied both the clear and dark waxes.
It goes so much better with my mirror too.
Hummm.....I wonder what's next?
Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Love it Martina. You chose the perfect colors.
I really love the paint job you gave this piece! Doesn't even look the same. So pretty!
What a pretty little piece, Martina! I love the two colors you chose to do it in!
Those colors look so great together. Love it!
I just love it. It's great when you can change something up and get a whole new look. Love the rocks in the jar as well.
Oh! I love this piece, Martina! You did a really great job with it, too! And it does look good with your mirror!

Oooh la la! So much better. I really like your change. Yup, we're all about changing things up, especially with spring around the corner.

You go girl...
I love it.
I love the way it turned out! It was pretty before, but I like this even better.
Your little cabinet looks so sweet in the new colour. Sometimes we just need a change, or the colour is no longer working so out comes the paint. The styling with the mirror is very pretty too.
Oh, and I tea stained two old paperbacks and tied them with twine last week. I just need to take photos and share them.
I do know that feeling and I love what you have done, very pretty!
It looks wonderful with your mirror.
The colors of the finishes are so pretty together.
Hugs, Cindy
Really nice piece--you did a great job on it and it fits perfectly into its new spot!
Perfectly gorgeous, Martina. I love it where you have placed it.

Hi Martina! I love the transformation. The color combo you chose is really pretty. And I agree, it looks better with your mirror.
Love it, Martina! You did a great job....the color choices are perfect.....and it is MUCH more charming. Linda
I love it, Martina. Once you take that big gulp and slap the first brush load of paint on it is all uphill, isn't it? I have a hard time sometimes allowing myself to paint a piece I have always loved. GREAT JOB...love the color choices and now it really reflects YOU! xo Diana
Wonderful color combo...it looks outstanding!
Blessings,
Linda
What a pretty color combination! That spot next to the staircase was made for that piece!

So pretty! You did a great job with distressing the piece.

Martina it looks fabulous! I love the color combo you chose. Funny thing is that the design of it originally is what inspired me for our kitchen island. Love it!

It is such a cute little cabinet and you've made it even cuter. Love the vignette on the top. x Sharon
I'm not wondering why you painted it... #1 Because you wanted to. #2 You had a vision # Because you could & YOU DID A GREAT JOB!
