I am Back Blogging with a Beauty!

Wow, time flies when you have five children, three antique booths plus a booth at The Scott's Antique Market!  It is hard to believe it has been six months since I posted on here!  I am going to try my best to get back into the swing of it and post again on a regular basis.  I figured this week would be a great time to start - all five of our children are at horse camp for the week!

 

I am going to start with a Beautiful Vintage China Cabinet that I just finished restyling and delivered to Heritage Square Antique Mall just today.

 

Before:

 

 

 

 

She started out a beauty in her original state but now she will definitely turn heads! 

 

After:

 

 

 

This piece is a petite cabinet and is super unique on legs and with a drawer.  It looks like she has a bit of William and Mary influence in her design.

 

I painted this piece with regular paint from Lowes.  I have been making my own chalk paint for some time now but decided to use paint straight out of the can for this piece.  It is a custom color that I mixed on my own and I have Lowes mix it for me with their custom paint machine.  It appears white or off white at first but it does have a very slight grey tint to it.  I call it "Sterling" - my favorite jewelry by far!

 

I painted the interior an aqua blue and it looks stunning on her. 

 

I lightly distressed the piece, waxed it and replaced the original hardware. 

 

 

 

It was tough parting with this one today but alas my house is full already and I am not ready just yet to part with any existing pieces!  She arrived this afternoon to Booth G21.
