The latest on The Painted Drawer.... here is my new logo! Christine from Great Oak Circle created it for me. She did such an amazing job and I am grateful that she took so much time to get it just right.
This Christmas, we are having family visit and hence our living room needed to transform from my indoor "workshop" back to living space. I cleared everything out and decided to start the project with a coat of fresh paint on the walls, Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter. I am a big fan of this grey. It is a soft, french grey and I already have it in my dining room.
We really needed more seating as all we have now is a little sofa that I scored from Craigslist and slipcovered. I found a pair of caned chairs in a thrift store for $11 each. I liked the lines and the caning was intact. So, into my minivan they went.
Here is a before:
and here it is now after a few coats of Annie Sloan Old White, some clear and dark wax, and a lot of distressing...
