i loved this makeover. the above photo has stuck in my mind for years. i love the chest. the color. the high gloss. and turquoise IS the 2010 pantone color of the year.
this is the chest in my foyer now. it's red. i've come to dislike red. i'm thinking of painting it that turquoise this weekend. and doing a gallery wall of my photos of the local defunct train in black frames above it. what do you think?
my only hesitation is the wall color behind the chest. it's a yellow-camel. maybe if i made steve a really, really good dinner and let him watch what HE wants to watch on tv, he'll wallpaper the 2-story wall behind the chest in grasscloth. but first i'd have to get him to like wallpaper. he hates it. hmmm... i think i'll have to work with the paint color as is. i'll let ya know how it goes!

sista - I am sending you a photo to aid your decision making process . .
for the record my FAVORITE paint color for the turquoise family is : C2, acapella It is the perfect hue, have used it over and over again.
I think it's a great idea, grass cloth or not!
i think it'll be beautiful! definitely do it!
I love the chest, gorgeous shape it has! I love red but I also love turquoise, go for it! What a statement it will make and it will go beautifully with your photos.
