Product of the Month: Furniture Wax
If you haven’t used Miss Mustard Seed’s Furniture Wax, you are missing out on a lovely finish. Our beeswax based wax is super smooth and very malleable. Check out that consistency…
It is an amazing product to work with — lots of work time before it dries and no detectable odor make it a pleasure to use to finish all types of porous paints. Yep, that’s right, not just for milkpaint! It can be used on Chalk and Clay paints as well as flat latex. Stop in soon to see!

Colors of the Month: trophy and french enamel
We are just moving right along through 2019, aren’t we? It’s March already and we are loving the Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint colors of the month for this month, French Enamel and Trophy!
First, French Enamel…
It is a soft blue and one of Miss Mustard Seed’s favorites. She created it to mimic the look of old French enamelware and it is spot on. Lots of blues mix to make French Enamel a perfect accent color. Check out some of the side tables we have finished in French Enamel…
And, Trophy…
I love Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint in Trophy! We’ve been painting loads of buffets, dressers, lingerie chests and bedside tables of all sorts and sizes with MMSMP Trophy. And, they all look amazing, if we do say so ourselves. Trophy has a bit of a green base and so the look is almost pewter when dry. We finish it, more often than not, with a custom mix of antiquing and furniture waxes. Here are some of our latest pieces…
before and after: that og hardware!
This has to be one of my all time favorite pieces! It’s in my favorite color (MMSMP grain sack). I painted it. And, THAT HARDWARE! I was just talking about it with a customer and we decided we liked the hardware because it was an unusual shape. It is traditional with a little geometric shape to it and super cool!
