For the Love of the Vanity

This vanity was so deserving of a makeover!  The shape, carved detailing, wooden appliques and embellishments were just waiting to be discovered.   I painted the entire piece in General FInishes Milk Paint in Linen.  I then applied a coat of General FInished High Performance Top Coat in Flat to provide a slip coat for the next step .  General Finishes Glaze Effects in Van Dyke Brown was then applied to with a sponge brush and allowed to settle in the carvings and raised embellishments.  The excess glaze was wiped off with a soft cloth.  General Finishes High Performance Top Coat was then applied to protect the finishes.
