Say Hello to Ironstone

By Miss Mustard Seed on Aug 13, 2012

I’m finally getting around to introducing another Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint color…

…Ironstone…

 

 

What else would I call my white?  For this piece, I’m so glad I finally got a lot of chipping.  All white pieces aren’t really my style, so I was hoping for lots of chippiness, which I got,  and I left the top and drawers wood.   Here’s how the piece started…

I sort of laughed when I showed my husband the finished dresser.  Most people would probaly consider it a “before” with the partially painted chippiness.  Oh well.  Those who get it, get it.

 

 

I was so fortunate to buy this piece with the gorgeous original glass knobs…

 

 

Oh, Milk Paint chippy goodness on turned legs.  Sigh.

 

I did make a video on getting the chippy look with Milk Paint and I just need to edit it to get it ready to share.

 

 

 

Up next…Grain Sack.  It’s a good one.
