Milk Paint Love!
I just wanted to share this sweet collage of all the Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint Colors…the palette is so beautiful because Marian thoughtfully chooses the colors to work with each other.
before & after: and there are two!
Finished in Jolie Classic Navy with a coat of Clear Wax, these tables got a whole new look!30
before & after: pure bliss!
before & after: …and cocoa
before & after: cream…
Of all the jolie neutrals, cream is the most yellow. It is a great mixing color for that reason! Here is the original on this beautiful entry table.
before & after: a long time coming
The photo stamp on our before picture was from 2016! Yikes, it took me a while to determine the new look for this small secretary style desk. I finally chose Jolie in Dove Gray with some floral knobs. I think it was work the wait.
before & after: the knobs make the table
Anything would have been better than the before, right? It looked like a sad little table without much personality. Cut to the refined yet sassy table on the right. Two coats of Jolie Eucalyptus with some clear wax: check. Asian inspired green leaf knobs from the fivethirty home hardware bin: check. A whole new look: check and check!
before & after: oooo lala, jolie french linen
Two coats of Jolie French Linen and some Clear and Dark Waxes make for a sweet redo on this little flip table.
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun: Inspo edition
Need some dress up inspiration for our Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Ladies Night on October 3rd, look no further than some of your favorite merchants!!
before & after: shelf in jolie gesso white
before & after: have we mentioned it’s our favorite Jolie color?
I picked this as one of my favorite colors long before I saw it in person. It has all the elements of what Erica likes in a color: green, blue, gray and a little bit of mystery! By that, I mean that it can appear to be several different colors depending on the light and surrounding colors. It is amazing! We have already sold 2 buffets and a bunch of tables so we think you like it too!!
before & after: table in jolie marigold
before & after: misty cove redo
before & after: the details are fabulous
This little table is so interesting! I think the front details look like an old fashioned rug beater. We chose the Jolie color Moroccan Clay for this refresh and it turned out pretty sweet!
before & after: drum table redo
Drum tables are some of our more popular pieces because they are so versatile. They can fill in a big space between furniture, be a foyer table in a smaller entry and even an eating area for two! We refinished this piece in Jolie Paints Petit Chateau, a neutral with a hint of green, and kept the original lion head knob hardware.
before & after: the superstar!
You probably recognize this sweet buffet if you’ve seen our social media recently. It was the perfect statement piece for our cute stop motion video featuring some of our favorite decor items!
before & after: from faded to fab
This old “frenchy” finish was very faded – no longer white and not quite cream. It also had some tacky gold around the legs, sooooo we fixed it right up with a few coats of Jolie Paint in Verdigris. Looking good!!
before & after: game table
DO you know what a game table is? I had not heard of it until we opened the store. They are very cool and once we got the first one in, we’ve been keeping an eye out. They look like a regular table when folded up. To open it, you turn the top and flip it open to make a square. It even has room to store things underneath…
This one is in Miss Mustard Seed’s Milk Paint in Trophy!
before & after: last of the mmsmp typewriter roundup
We had an unintentional “typewriter week” here on the blog! While I like them all, I think this one may be the most fun. We finished the outside with 2 coats of mmsmp in typewriter and antiquing wax and then added some depth to the inside by finishing it with mmsmp in trophy, out pewter gray. What do you think? Are you a fan of the two-tone?
