Graphite Goodness

A client was redecorating her bedroom as a 15th anniversary gift from her husband (great guy!) and was in search of a large dresser to go along with her Hollywood Regency vision. After searching, I found this great dresser with tons of storage and we decided that that was THE piece. Here she is before her transformation:

Certainly not a bad dresser, but definitely in need of some color and some bling! Here is how she turned out:

I used straight up Annie Sloan Graphite with details highlighted in a Graphite/Old White mix, and the roping in a custom mixed silver. I finished her off with some clear wax and crystal glass knobs and pulls. My client loved it! It complimented her Hollywood Regency style and finished off her room beautifully. I have to say, it was hard to let her go - definitely one of my favorite pieces to date!
