Painted White Cabinet

Chippy White Goodness!!!

So I finally finished up my cabinet in the living room.

This is what it looked like before

 I painted it with a mix of what I had on hand.

I had some Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint in Ironstone.

But I didn't have a lot of it...so I mixed it up and added a pint of Valspar paint to it.

I lightly sanded first and then cleaned the cabinet up with vinegar.

I did too good of job sanding and cleaning because she didn't chip at all.

Perhaps she would have if I hadn't mixed paints.

Probably would...but I wanted to use what I had.

So I sanded the dickens out of her. 

 Then I used Miss Mustard Seed Furniture Wax on top.

Two coats.

 It's a beautiful smooth finish.

Knobs came from Hobby Lobby.

This pretty orchid?

I confess I bought it at work the other day. 

I said I wouldn't be buying much there but I could not resist this sweet small orchid

in a silver container.

So yesterday at work one of the Vice Presidents of the company 

came up to me and said,

"We were all looking at your blog this morning."

I was like...you were? How did you know I have a blog?

He said every morning they check to see what is being said about Bob Mills 

Furniture on the internet and up popped my blog.

Thank goodness he didn't have a problem with me promoting the store.

I didn't think they would.
