Teal, Blue & Green Painted Entry Chest

I painted this especially for my mother-in-law.  The piece is hers but was yellow, gold and brown with a painted floral pattern on it. She was ready for an update, so I grabbed my frog tape and added the trim around each door and drawer, added new knobs and 3 different colors.
I really LOVE the way it turned out!



 Love these knobs!!!


Have a wonderful week!

    1. Thanks everyone! I used frog tape to create the border around the door and drawer edges. This was so rewarding to do this piece! Thanks for your support!

  2. Dionne, As usual, Love your colors!! I do wish you would share what you used tho.(unless you custom mix, then
    I understand). I especially love the darker teal color you used on the 2nd molding going around the top piece.
    Is that a straight color from the can or one you mixed? Such a pretty piece and it matches your Ikat pillow so well!

    1. Thank you, everyone! This color is evergreen by BM. The darker teal color is Venezualean Sea, also by BM. The middle shade is a combo of the other 2:)
