I wish I could see it in person! I don't just consider this furniture painting or refinishing; it's a work of art. It takes true talent to blend all those colors of paint and wax so beautifully. I like your idea of leaving the inside unwaxed so you can more easily change it. I just really love this project.Laurel Stephenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18264002197374263734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235161479525766490.post-12509854463983740692012-07-19T05:27:34.512-05:002012-07-19T05:27:34.512-05:00I think this came out really nice!

I have done several pieces with min-wax/dark wax combo and it takes a little longer to do it the way you do it. If you wax the whole thing lightly with clear first the dark wax step doesn't take as long because you don't have to do as much removing.karen@somewhatquirkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02772267613790523188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235161479525766490.post-7406607944705412132012-07-09T11:36:34.091-05:002012-07-09T11:36:34.091-05:00Looks great!

I am painting the backside of my breakfast hutch. I was a chicken, I started small. LOL Waiting for my second coat of Duck Egg Blue to dry, then I will wax. I'm not going to sand mine, b/c I don't want as much of a Shabby Chic look. You were brave to paint that pretty piece.
