before and after: french provincial chests

Jul 20, 2020 | Before & After, Jolie Paint

I love it when we get two matching pieces in that can be used for bedside tables! We decided to go pure white with some distressing on these french provincial beauts. ANd, we painted the hardware — this is usually a call I make on a case by case basis. Sometimes we will update the french style pulls with a more modern metallic finish but I thought it would be too much of a contrast with the pure white. What do you think? That yellowed finish with gold accents certainly reminds me of my own bedroom furniture from my childhood. I like the update!
