We keep painting and packing, painting and packing. We’re almost there. Then it’ll be time to load up the truck.

I know I’m the worst with the before pictures this week, but I can’t remember where in the world they all wound up. Just imagine this piece old and gross and covered in what appeared to be horse hair.
Ew.
After a good cleaning, I painted the little cabinet in a custom mixed mint green (1 part Antibes Green & 4 parts Pure White). We painted it in two coats, distressed it with a medium grit sanding block, and then waxed it in Annie Sloan Soft Wax in Clear. While it’s a small cabinet, I really love the finish on this piece.
We’re also bringing some smalls (lots of smalls, actually) like our Nashville pencil sets that have been so popular. We’re also bringing some cool pieces from our friends at Cotton Creek (follow them on Facebook here), and are excited to merge our looks–fun stuff.
I couldn’t help but show you these cool handmade bar and grilling tools by Southern Hooker. I gotta tell you I love that name.
And the products.
After all this talk about working together, it was fun to shoot our products together and see some displays come to life.
Stay tuned for more fun collaborations and for more Chapel Market sneak peeks!
Just wanted to let you know that pop up ad on side of your page won’t go away even after you press repetitive. It’s so annoying not to be able to see your pages in full. Good luck at Chapel Market! I wish I lived close enough to attend.
Same here, i can only view half
Hey Brandy, I’m sorry we are having issues, but thanks for the heads up and your patience while we get it fixed… 🙂

Hey Starr, thanks for letting us know. We are still trying to work out the bugs on that 🙁 Can you tell me, was that when you were viewing from your phone, or computer?
Thanks,
Matt
I had the same problem viewing from my iPad…
Thanks
Oh my stars… that cabinet is awesome! What are the dimensions? How many shelves on the inside? Price? I’ve been looking for a smallish cabinet and that just might work! I will be at Chapel Market tomorrow.
I had same problem with both phone and computer.
ok, I’m sorry, let question on this… 🙂 I promise… what type of phone and what operating system on computer. because I can turn them off for a particular operating system or device. I.E. you may have vista or Windows 8 on your computer, and viewing our site with Internet explorer 8 or 9, and you are using an iPhone with an older iOs, because my iPhone running 7.?? is not showing the ad over the words. So if you don’t mind telling me that, I would appreciate it, because I know we have other readers out there who are probably having the same problem, they just haven’t said anything about it. So If you don’t mind sharing that info with me, I believe we can get it fixed for you.
Thanks,
Matt
I have been unable to find the sources post following your kitchen reveal post a month ago. Am I missing something??? Marie
Hi it also is doing that on my phone, it’s an iPhone 4. It is very hard to even look at your site anymore. 🙁
Hi! I’m having the same problem with my iPad, using the iOS 8.1. Love, love your site, but it is quite frustrating. Hope this helps you!
iOS7on iphone and Macbook computer. I don’t have this issue with the many other blogs I frequent. Hope you can figure this out – mostly for your own sake! I know you value the traffic on the blog site :)..
Great post. I just stumbled upon your blog while searching for vintage and painted cabinets. The cabinet looks lovely by the way. Thanks again and happy new year!
I just painted my living room table with Annie Sloan chalk paint. I then sanded it in a few spots to make it look aged. I also just did a few small spots on the top of the table Then, I applied the clear wax. My problem is that the sanded spots on the table top appear extra shiny…shinier than the rest of the surface. Any advice or suggestions? Thanks!
Hi there Beth!
You could use a buffing brush to buff the spots! 🙂
This is a great piece—charming, simple, and totally eye catching. Thank you for sharing!
I really need help with the decision to paint the amazing antiques that I have been collecting. I love the shape, age and beauty of them, except for the dark stained wood. I have been going back and forth on whether to sand and paint and run the risk of lowering the value or just completely ruining them… do you have any input on this or ideas? Thank you 🙂
Oh my stars… that cabinet is awesome! What are the dimensions? How many shelves on the inside? It’s so annoying not to be able to see your pages in full. And just for your information, in Indonesia we make some mahogany and teak furniture. You can visit my site to http://www.indo-furni.com
