A couple weeks ago I painted a French Provincial buffet in black. It was my first furniture makeover I painted in black. Since then, I've had a bit of a color crush, and have refinished several more pieces in black. Here is my latest...I mean really, can you blame me for crushing on this dresser?! The rich black paired with the gold hardware makes it hard to resist!
The piece didn't start out quite so swoon-worthy though. However the clean modern lines and brass hardware made this piece a standout as soon as I saw it.
I wanted to create a statement piece without being too over the top. I knew that General Finishes Lamp Black would work perfect for the look I was going for. I sanded the piece and then applied two coats of paint. I sealed the base with wax, however went with polyurethane for the top for extra protection and extra shine.
After polishing the hardware, it still wasn't quite as shiny as I wanted. I sprayed it with a coat of Rustoleum Metallic Gold. The gold hardware really creates a sophisticated and polished look.
Gold accents and accessories are so popular right now, making this hardware trendy and classic at the same time.
They neutral color and clean lines of this piece makes it compatible with so many different styles. I went with an upscale transitional look when styling it.
The only problem with this piece...I have no space in my house for it and I think the husband may go berserk if I try and keep one more piece of my furniture!
