French Cottage Bliss!

I was so excited when we found this China cabinet at an estate sale auction back in December! We paid a pretty penny for it but I thought after we fixed it up and got it looking shabby we could certainly make our money back, it was well worth the 12 hours of work!


We used Annie Sloan's Chalk Paint in Old White and CoCo, which together makes a great combination! I also slightly distressed the paint and added dark wax to give it a vintage feel. 
This is a Basset brand, very heavy duty, made with dove tail joints and has all of its original hardware. I thought the hardware went so well with the new refinished look so we just buffed them up and stuck them back on, I'm so happy with the way they look on the Old White and CoCo! 


Another awesome detail I LOVED about this piece was the stripes I incorporated on the sides, it added interest to the piece. Along with the CoCo detailing on all of the curves and features, can you say character!?! 
This piece would display someone's dishes perfectly, I would have loved to keep this China cabinet and put my turquoise Fiesta Ware dishes in it! It's still for sale and located in our booth at Miss Trudy's in Weatherford. If you're interested in purchasing this piece or having us refinish one similar contact us at bcdesignok@gmail.com
