Be Still My "Burling" Heart

By Royal Reincarnations, Owner/ Designer in Rosenhayn, NJ.

Check out those curves! This radient 1920's Dresser and mirror was screaming for a makeover! I began by painting with my custom mix chalkpaint using Sherwin Williams Naval. The beautiful burl insets just had to be enhanced! I chose to use a combination of stain and paint to exalt the elegant details this dresser has. My color choice of stain was GF Nutmeg Gel Stain. I accented with 18k gold leaf to give it that wow factor! Finally I sealed this Dresser and Mirror in GF HPTC to ensure a lasting finish!
