I always joke that a piece in Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint Lucketts Green is sure to sell the same day we get it out. I was 50/50 on these tables. This one is long gone…
But this one is still available…

Kellie and I packed up our paint (and drop clothes, wax, brushes, water, screwdrivers, mixers and bonding agent) and headed off to a client’s house last week. It was cold, but their room was warm and full of lots of natural light. We had talked a little about what they wanted to do (MMSMP in mora) but we nailed down the details and started painting right away! Here’s where we started…
And here’s the finished piece…
We painted two coats of mora with bonding agent followed by a light sand with very little distressing. Jackie chose a mix of the Miss Mustard Seed’s White and Furniture Waxes. It fits so perfectly with her colors and style! She “love loves it!”
A side by side compare…

Over a year ago, I was lucky enough to go to Toronto for a Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint retailer event. Marian talked to us there about bespoke colors (translation: custom mix of colors). I’ve done a few special mixes here and there, but we intentionally created this special mix of 4 parts grain sack to 1 part trophy for this sweet, unusual table!

So there’ no doubt about it, I’m a green person. I love a nice bright grass green and a soft pastel green and everything in between. Lately, I’ve been loving Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint in Layla’s Mint. It is a beautiful soft, pastel mint green that we’ve been using quite a bit on chests and side tables…

Wow, thank you so much for shopping with us this holiday season! We can’t say thanks enough to customers, near and far, for their continued patronage and support. You mean the world to us and we couldn’t do what we love without you!!
We have been busy transforming the store from a Christmas Wonderland to a more focused, luxurious look. We took down all of the ornaments and trees and MOST of the deer and replaced with some bolder gold geometric pieces and lots of rich navy in the form of Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint in Artissimo and some blue willow china. Take a peek…
note: the buffet and cabinet in secod row are sold
We hope you stop by soon to check out our new look!

Even though the big holiday season has come and gone, we are happy that Valentine’s Day is on the horizon so we can keep all those beautiful pieces in Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint Tricycle around for a while. As we’ve mentioned before, we almost always finish Tricycle with our Antiquing Wax to soften and add more depth!
