I used all products from the CeCe Caldwell Paints line. The colors I chose are Sante Fe Turquoise, otherwise know as the prettiest turquoise EVER. I also used Windsor Blue and a tiny bit of Pueblo Pepper.  For some reason, using just one color at a time seems disappointing, so for now I’m playing with textures and blending.

In case you’re wondering, wardrobes are so much harder to paint than dressers, buffets or chests. There’s a whole lot more surface area but also the large flat surfaces are hard to get a good texture on. If you’re a painter, you know the pieces with detail are easier to achieve a worn and distressed look.

That red you see is Pueblo Pepper, also by CeCe Caldwell Paints. 

Here is a “before” image.  This piece sat in a store for weeks and weeks.  It just needed a new look. 

Look at that huge copper pot I found last week.  I’m storing this on our driftwood bookcase and filling it with Mexican style blankets.  

I love the imperfection here.  The chippy texture reminds me that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Plus, any chance I can make a mess and get away with it is a good thing for me!

This piece has just sold and will be headed to a new home next week!

Hope you all are having a fun Summer!
