Pop of Pink French Provincial Makeover

Feb 11

Just in time for Valentine’s Day! A sweet French Provincial table makeover using pale pink and a flower inspired decoupage paper on the interior.

Here is the little table as I found it. I picked it up from a local thrift store. I thought it was the perfect size to go in the girl’s bedroom at our Secretary House. I plan on placing it between two twin beds in the room (see the progress on the Orange Bedroom Makeover here!)

I used the Dixie Belle Paint Line, Silk for this piece. Silk is an all-in-one mineral paint and does not require any sealer. It creates a smoother finish than chalk paint and has a nice sheen to it. This soft pink is the color Conch.

DB Belles and Whistles Rice Decoupage Paper was added to the interior. I just cut and pasted it using their clear coat to adhere and seal. Honestly, very simple!

Gold gilding wax gave the hardware back its shine, and I very lightly distressed the corners of the drawer and edges of the doors. The door grilles were also painted in Silk and gilding wax was also applied.
