This week we finished a new piece and it’s generating a lot of questions…What paint color is that?  How did you do the copper?  What was it finished with? 
 
So, in today’s post we’ll break it down for you and explain just how we created this look. 

Just like the Paisley Piece, this buffet was something Paul and I have had for a very long time.  In fact, when we purchased it, we didn’t have any immediate finishing plan (and it was too large to fit easily down the stairs into our studio space), so we decided to use it in our own dining room until we felt inspired.

We've had it in the store for a few months and while everything around it came and went, this vanity was still there.
 
Don’t get me wrong, it received a lot of love.  Customers in the shop would look at it and love on it…but there it sat.
 
We sell on an upscale online shopping site and this vanity had an unprecedented number of followers…but there it sat.
