Winner! Cedar Chest

By Ashley Olson at Eden Elyse Design Co. in Stillwater, MN.

Winning Category

This chest has been in my family for three generations and was built to stand the test of time.  I refinished the exterior in lamp black milk paint and a deep blue with a black glaze that has brought new life and a refreshed style.  I have left some of the decorative molded pieces in natural wood, adding a nice contrast to the black paint. The cedar interior remains unfinished and has that unmistakable fresh cedar fragrance.
