odern buffet & hutch transformation

posted by Mary - because i like to decorate
Drum roll please...introducing Henry -- a modern English buffet & hutch. Henry fit as a name from the very beginning because of his masculine shape and bold lines. It's such a heavy piece, too!

Yes, I've softened him up a bit, but I like to think he found love :)







Do you remember what he looked like before?

I used a watered-down solution of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Pure White, brushed on, then wiped off with a rag. It took me way longer than expected due to all the detailing.

Then, when dry, I did some extra distressing with an ultra-fine sanding block. He was finished off with a coat of AS Clear Wax.
