Lane Cedar Chest Paint Makeover
It’s Green Paint Day at Petticoat Junktion.
No, not the musical group….the furniture color of the day is green!
My son told me the other day that he knows green is my favorite color because all my projects are green.
Are not.
I pulled up my photo gallery to prove it to him and…uumm…I do a lot of green projects.
He said 25%… and that could be on the money.
I love green but I also love orange, yellow, red….I could go on.
black and green painted cedar chest
I got the cedar chest at My Favorite Junk Shop.
I know that’s a surprise!
There’s black paint underneath the green.
Isn’t it cool.
I’ll share the secret to the paint finish tomorrow.

This is a safety alert from Lane.....Since many of our cedar chest products have withstood the test of time and have been in homes for decades, there have been cases where children have climbed inside chests with old style latching mechanisms and locked themselves in, and there have been incidences of suffocation inside chests. As a result of this important and urgent safety concern, Lane has launched numerous successful programs since 1987, all concentrating on lock replacement. However, based on our best records, there are still an estimated 6 million chests owned by consumers that may require the new lock upgrade. Please click here for more information

Very pretty! I love the color. I wish I had the nerve to go bold with some of my furniture. I see so many beautiful colorful pieces. But I seem to stick with Browns and neutral.

I love the colour! Green is a favourite colour of mine and that shade is so happy and fresh.
I would be thrilled if you could share this post at my weekly Say G'day Saturday linky party. It has just started and this would be a brilliant addition.
Best wishes for a great weekend,

Yes! I like this one...I wondered what the inside looked like...I can imagine one of my daughters using it...is the inside good to store things in? What would you do if it wasn't?
I like it alot. I had a thought, what if you added some silver or gold to your paint and made it just a wee bit sparkly? I can't find that blog--I loved the way you used the metallic paint.
