I don't paint everything in my home but I have to say it gets tempting.
I know someday this will all be "out of style" and all us "painters" will be "strippers". LOL (no not that kind)
I bought this old wooden box because I knew painting was going to make it better! At one time I am sure it was loved but now it was crying for help.
I really loved the carving on top of this but you could hardly see it.
I painted it lemongrass yellow and highlighted the carving in grey.
I distressed it but it was still to plain for me.
Then the inspiration came from a tin I had.
I love the little bee on the front of it.
So with more grey paint I painted the front of the box.
I distressed the image and highlighted the carvings on each side. Much better!
This was a huge improvement to me!
What do you think?
Before
After
So now you can use it as a small table, a bench, and storage box! The best part of this is the storage.
Stay tuned for a giveaway! I will finally post tomorrow!!
