Made in 1957, this minimalist mid century modern dresser is constructed with Genuine Mahogany Association primaries and Poplar secondaries. Featuring nine full size drawers, dovetail joints and dowel details. Finished in a custom masculine green with brushed gold tab hardware and muted woodland drawer liners.
"Chunky harp table with bun feet, updated in General Finishes Antique White and Sunglow! I think this sunny beaut would make the perfect little bistro table! Your day would start off so perfectly happy after enjoying some coffee or tea seated at this cutie.
Again, I'm impressed with the blend-ability of General Finishes Milk Paint. It made creating this ombre base a dream. (The sunflower was also hand-painted in the same colors as the base.)" - The Boho Basement RVA
It came to me previously painted, and not well. The paint started to come off just from cleaning! It needed to be entirely stripped, which was no small task. Once I started spraying the color though, it was all worth it! My client chose this bold color as it’s going in her place of business as a coffee station. A perfect way to think outside the box when it comes to furniture, as it doesn’t always need to be used in a home setting.Paint color: Sunglow by...

"We may be in the dog days of summer, but I can still dream of autumn. 1965 Bassett chest of drawers from the Ticino collection. Finished in a custom mixed Tobacco Terra Cotta (I used one pint of Sunglow, 9 oz Persimmon, 1oz Lamp Black.) This color ranges from muted orange to a deep mustard yellow depending on the lighting." - Saved By Design
"New favorite color alert! Just don’t ask me what it is because I custom mixed it and never measure but if you throw some General Finishes Seagull Gray, Driftwood, Sunglow and the tiniest bit of red, you might come close. To clean up the brass hardware I used an old favorite: Bar Keepers Friend, a Brillo pad and some elbow grease. This Drexel 9 drawer is good to go!" - Amost Simple Home
"This is such a beautiful teal. I’m obsessed with the color. Custom color using General Finishes Emerald, Sunglow, and Persian Blue. No ratios. Just mixed until I found the color I needed." - ReFabulous Finds by Christina
I used Persimmon, Coral Crush, Royal Purple, Klein Blue, Sunglow, Emerald, Patina Green and Holiday Red milk paints along with a few other acrylic colors on this painting. The coverage is nice, blending is easy, and I love seeing all the bright colors together.
"This solid mahogany dresser is sure to brighten any room! My friend and client wanted a bold bright yellow and I think I delivered ☀️ This dresser was painted in General Finishes Sunglow while the top was stained in Espresso. I cleaned up the original hardware but we decided the aged brass patina was perfect!"
"Feeling inspired by late summer sunshine and sunflowers, this petite buffet is painted in a custom mix of Sunglow, Somerset Gold, Buttermilk Yellow Milk Paints, a few dashes of Van Dyke Brown Glaze Effecs and some dollops of Antique White Milk Paint. Glazed the paint with a little Pitch Black Glaze Effects and sealed with Clear Enduro Poly in Satin." - Gravity Hill Home

This eight drawer dresser has been painted in a custom mix of General Finishes Coastal Blue, Sunglow Yellow with a touch of a true turqouise to make this gorgeous blue - very similar to Magnolia Home's Weekend Blue. Original hardware.
Incredible, one of a kind, full-color commode. Layers Painted with General Finishes milk paints, applied one by one in the following colors: Coastal Blue, Halcyon Blue, Klein Blue, Persimmon, Sunglow, Coral Crush, Linen. The rust effect is the color of Pearl Effects, Tawny. Handles adapted from the old dresser.
This beautiful Thomasville buffet did not sell in its original dated condition. The brass hardware was removed from the back and the top stripped and sanded down to remove all scratches and rings. The top was stained expresso and the body was painted in a rich custom mixed bright turqouise. It was then glazed with GF pitch black glaze and crumpled bags were used to get the faux effect. The entire piece was topcoated with GF High Performance Topcoat in flat. The result is an updated buffet/...

"When I was asked to transform these Mid Century nightstands I was excited and a tad bit nervous because if you follow my work, you'll know this is a first for me! I was given the freedom to come up with an original design with the only guideline being that there were pops of navy and yellow to match the decor in the room. It was definitely a little tricky but so much FUN! I think this will be a first of many unique MCM pieces to come. The nightstands were painted in my favorite dark navy,...

Jen's Furniture Rehab is ready for spring!"Now this was a fun project!! It took two days and myself and two helpers to remove every bit of the stuffing and about 5 million staples from this chair!! I would refer whoever upholstered this chair to everyone!! Once it was naked, I covered it in General Finishes Sunglow Milk Paint, and since it's rated for outdoor use, I skipped the sealer! By the end of the summer, I hope to see it fully engulfed in a different kind of floral beauty!!"
