One of my favorite combinations is MMSMP typewriter, our black, with kitchen scale, our teal. I’ve used this combination several times over the years. Bookshelves, wine cabinets and dressers come to mind as some of my favorite pieces.
The typewriter on this piece is hidden, it’s in the drawers which we can’t see in this picture – boo! We added these plain back knobs to coordinate.
There are two of these awesome night stands in mmsmp grain sack. They are a little more modern than our usual and I really like them! What do you think?
If you’ve read this blog or ever talked with me about painting, you know I love Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint Antiquing Wax…
It is a rich brown – black and perfect for adding depth to many of the MMSMP colors. We almost always use antiquing wax on Outback Petticoat, Tricycle and Typewriter.
We like to mix some clear furniture with antiquing wax to soften it a little for lighter colors like Farmhouse White, Schloss and Layla’s Mint.
And, if you add the antiquing wax to our white wax, a lovely gray is created and will soften the whites without a hint of brown, give Trophy a weathered look and take any of the green tint out of Mora.
Have you tried our MMSMP colors of the month for November??
Schloss, our lovely, taupe/gray, is a great neutral if you want some warmth in your gray. Can you beat a gray with brown undertones? Not in my book!
And, speaking of brown, here’s curio! Miss Mustard Seed created Curio to mimic the look of old an old curio cabinet. It is the most versatile of all our MMSMP colors in my mind because it is really a walnut color. You can add extra water to make a stain or a wash or mix it at full strength for a rich, dark brown.
Yay November!!
Cute piece. Cute knobs.
The instructions on the to paint list said mustard seed yellow but a happy accident meant that this cute piece ended up in MMSMP lucketts green. I love it when a non-plan comes together!
