The Farmhouse Cabinet in Greige and Persimmon – Before and After

by

The Greige Farmhouse Cabinet is done!

Remember the before?BeforeHere is the after!Greige Farmhouse Cabinet www.thepainteddrawer.comI used Sherwin Williams “Perfect Greige” and mixed it with the Vintage Storehouse Restoration Company chalky powder to create a chalk paint.  It adhered nicely.  I used 220 to 400 grit to distress and sand it back to smoothness and Annie Sloan clear wax as a sealer.Greige Farmhouse Cabinet The window panes add even more character to this very vintage piece.Greige Farmhouse Cabinet Pane

Greige Farmhouse Cabinet I placed pretty paper onto the shelves and the inside of the drawer to add a pop of color.  The removable paper ties in with the pop of persimmon that was painted inside the bottom cabinet.Greige Farmhouse Cabinet ShelvingGreige Farmhouse Cabinet with Coral Greige Farmhouse Cabinet WindowReplacing the hardware was not easy.  It took a trip to the Woodworkers Club to remove a stubborn screw from a door and a lot of wood filler before sanding them to smoothness.  New holes were drilled for the new pulls and I’m really happy I went to the trouble!

The new ceramic pulls give just the right touch.Greige Farmhouse Cabinet Pulls

  6. Oh Suzanne! The simplicity and clean lines of that piece, and the paint choice just looks so stunning! Just enough contrast with the persimmon, too. I love that greige colour!! This is absolutely gorgeous. Well done!
