"Creating custom colors are not my specialty but I am in love with how this color turned out! I used...
Custom mix of General Finishes Holiday Red and Brick Red Milk Paint on an adorable bench.
Unusual commode, simple, with interesting dimensions. In a narrow range of cold colors where blues and purples permeate each other. Layered applied General Finishes paint in Klein Blue, Royal Purple, Coastal Blue, Lime Green, Snow White. The shimmering metallic effect of Pearl Effect in gold and Brick Red was applied on the spot. Visible cracks and splinters add "years". The center is an energizing plum.
The look of this dresser makes my heart beat faster. Age-old, made of solid wood with elements of oak veneer. One of its kind, aged by multi-layered application of a whole range of mixed colors on the furniture, which gently penetrate each other creating an impression of being damaged by time. The inspiration for it was impressionist paintings trying to capture the fleeting moment and the sensual play of colors.
Her slender, curvy legs lead up to an elegant body. With a beautiful red body, black body wax and accented with gold knobs and a gold wax, she has great storage for her current home.

"Building a piece of furniture is one of the most rawest forms of creativity. You get to create something straight from your mind.
