Since PANTONE released their 2017 color "greenery" I thought it would be fun to re share some fun

"GREEN" pieces I have done over the years. 

Today I will re Share my Art Deco Vanity! 

Welcome back my Beauties!

Today's Painted furniture makeover is inspired by

St. Patrick's day!

I chose to makeover this Art Deco Vanity 

in honor of the Emerald Isle,

which is my opinion one of the most beautiful and green places in the world. :)

(you can see our visit to Ireland HERE)

 

I loved the style of this blonde vanity but it had some major cosmetic issues.

Being that I was working on this inside in the winter I really didn't want to start sanding in my basement.

 

So instead I pulled out my General Finishes Java Gel stain and gave the top a few coats to darken it up (I did lightly hand sand the top for the best adhesion) 

While the top was drying I gave the base a coat of Emerald Green Milk Paint.

I took off the old hardware which I loved and cleaned it up and gave it a coat of gold paint.

 

 I went through my stash of fabric and found this awesome green and blue pattern fabric.

I recovered the old bench and the vanity was ready to be photographed.

 

Here are those original handles all painted up and reattached.

I loved the style of those handles.

And here it is all back together.

I love the freshness of the green and the vibrancy.

It really made this piece pop and reminds me all the green country side of Ireland.

 

I also love how the Java Gel warmed up the top and gave it some attitude. :)

I am so happy with how this turned out.

I hope you enjoyed this latest makeover and I hope you have a
blessed St. Patricks day and Every Day.
As they say in Ireland
