Apothecary Pulls & A New Product

Recently, on one of my weekly stops at my Goodwill I came across quite the assembly of side tables.  Two were almost matching, one being slightly larger that the other.  They were solid oak and in really good shape so I walked away with them.

Big Eared Lily The Wonder Cat…….

They were a bit dated and orange but I knew we could fix that.

I chose Fusion Mineral paint in Coal Black for these two and some quite affordable antique brass apothecary pulls.  I did just a bit of distressing on theses, something I haven’t done a quite some but really loved the less polished look of it on theses two.

The tops are the show on these!

I tried a new (to me) wood stain product on these, Rustoleum wood stain in the color Kona and I love it!  As the name predicts it is a medium to deep coffee color.  So this was an interesting experience.  I’ve been a Minwax girl forever. The big, BIG difference in these two products is there viscosity.  The Rustoleum is noticeably thicker ya’ll.  Not as thick as a gel stain but thicker none the less and I feel like that viscosity made the process easier and I got better coverage.

This stain also drys quicker.  The can states that it is dry on one hour and it was :)))  I sealed both tops with multiple coats of Minwax poly .

Now ……. let’s talk about that sweet little clock!

It really doesn’t take much to make me squeal like a girl ya’ll.

A $3 vintage inspired clock that works will do it every single time ya’ll.

I’ve been working on a guest room refresh for a while now and this clock was perfect for the bedside table.  I am figuring out the framed art for the room currently.

And the drawers……..

Here’s the link to the drawer paper:

I’ve been writing this from our porch and it is a glorious morning ya’ll!

Enjoy it!
